A printing system comprises a transport apparatus adapted to transport a flexible web () along a process direction and first and second individually controllable inkjet imager units () offset from one another along the process direction. Each of the first imager unit and the second imager unit includes a first portion () operable to print on a first portion of the web and a second portion () operable to print on the second portion of the web wherein each of the first portion and second portion of the first and second imager units is stationary along the process direction and the lateral direction.

Systems and methods for printing a flexible web and printing compositions

A dryer management system includes a global dryer control system and a closed loop dynamic dryer control system to manage drying of a material deposited on web. The global dryer control system analyzes information regarding a production run to determine a web conveyance speed and a maximum web temperature. The closed loop dynamic dryer control system monitors an indication of a temperature of the web to maintain the indication of the temperature below the maximum web temperature. The closed loop dynamic dryer control system also analyzes images of the web to determine if the material is being insufficiently dried.

According to one aspect, a web handling system comprises a plurality of cross-grooved idler rollers, an imaging drum, a nip roller adjacent the imaging drum and forming a nip therewith, and a spreader roller disposed between the plurality of idler rollers and the nip roller. Each idler roller is disposed no more than a first distance from an adjacent idler roller, spreader roller, and nip roller and the spreader roller is disposed no more than a second distance from the nip. The first distance is in a range of 38 to 28 inches, 36 to 30 inches, or 35 to 33 inches and the second distance is in a range of 6 to 11 inches, 6.5 to 9 inches, or 7.0 to 8.5 inches.
