In a method to damp an oscillation of a roller driven via a drive in a printing system, a printing substrate web is directed across the roller, the roller and the printing substrate web forming a system capable of vibrating. With the drive the roller is driven with a predetermined nominal moment. With a sensor, a real value is determined of a variable representative of a velocity with which the printing substrate web is transported by the roller. In aid of a predetermined calculation rule, a correction moment is calculated from the determined real value such that a damping of the vibration-capable system results like a mechanical viscous damper. The correction moment is added to the predetermined nominal moment upon activation of the drive.

A printing unit prints to a pre-folded substrate web. An intake unit is at an intake of a transport arrangement. A synchronization sensor is at the transport arrangement between an infeed roller and the printing unit. The synchronization sensor emits a synchronization signal when a fold of the web is present at the synchronization sensor for synchronization of a printing operation with feed of the web. A path between the synchronization sensor and a freely accessible point of the intake unit is designed such that a fold is present at the synchronization sensor when the printing substrate web has a fold at the accessible point. A relative humidity sensor is at the printing unit. A relative humidity measured by the sensor is compared with a relative humidity of an input stack. Given a deviation a length change of the web between the synchronization sensor and the accessible point is calculated, the web being displaced by the length change at the accessible point.

In a method to execute a pause function in an inkjet printing system with at least one printing apparatus, the pause function is triggered to reduce a feed speed of the printing substrate web from a speed during printing operation to a predetermined speed for a predetermined duration. The duration is selected so that the printing substrate has suitable properties with regard to at least one of the elements selected from the group consisting of moisture and temperature under the printing unit of the printing apparatus at an end of the pause function. After ending the pause function, the printing substrate web is accelerated again to the speed during the printing operation.

In a method to execute a pause in an ink printing system printing operation in which a printing substrate web is printed with print bars having print heads, with aid of a take-up roller moving the printing substrate web at printing speed past the print bars in a transfer printing zone in order to generate print images. Upon triggering the pause, a strain state of the printing substrate web is measured at a beginning of the pause and stored as a desired strain state. During the pause, the strain state of the printing substrate web is measured as a real strain state at selectable points in time, and the real strain state is compared with desired strain state. Given a deviation of the real strain state from the desired strain state, at the selectable points in time the take-up roller is controlled so that the strain state of the printing substrate web assumes the desired strain state at the beginning of the pause. After an end of the pause, the printing substrate web is transported with the take-up roller at the printing speed again.

To activate a processing device which processes a surface of a moving work piece at regular intervals, wherein a predetermined time duration passes between an activation signal of the processing device and the processing on the surface, the movement of the work piece is sensed with a sensor that generates work pulses. A respective control pulse is generated if a predetermined number of work pulses has been generated. A number of the work pulses is repeatedly detected in a respective time interval that corresponds to the predetermined time duration. The activation signals are each generated at each control pulse of a series, and the activation signals are offset forward in time relative to the respective control pulse corresponding to the number of work pulses that have been detected in the respective time interval. The activation signals are output to the processing device.

In a method to execute a pause function of an ink printing system wherein a printing substrate web is printed with a printing unit with print bars having print heads, a real value of a web tension of the printing substrate web is measured with a web tension sensor. In a printing operation the real value of the web tension is regulated to a predetermined desired operating value of the web tension. With triggering of the pause function, the web tension is further regulated by modifying the desired value of the web tension so that the printing substrate web assumes a position at the print heads after an end of the pause function that it had before a beginning of the pause function. After the end of the pause function, the real value of the web tension is regulated again to the desired operating value of the web tension.

In a method or device to sample a web movement, an incremental encoder translates the web movement into two phase-offset output signals. A quadrature decoder generates first and second digital output signals with two respective signal levels. The first output signal is designated as a forward signal and the second output signal is designated as a backward signal. An evaluation circuit outputs a control signal and has a first counter that counts a signal change of the forward signal and subtracts from the count a signal change of the backward signal. A second counter counts a signal change of the control signal. A comparator compares values of the first and the second counters. A disabling device enables the forward signal if values of both the first and second counters are the same so that the forward signal is output, and disables the forward signal if values of the two counters are different.

In a method for printing a recording medium, an object type of image elements to be printed is determined for a corresponding print page using digital data. In generation of a bitmap for generation of a latent image for a first print process or a second print process, dependent on the object type image points are adapted in a direction of at least one main axis corresponding to an expected shrinkage. The recording medium is printed with a first toner image in a first print process. The first toner image is fixed on the recording medium in the fixing device where the recording medium shrinks along said at least one main axis. In the second print process, a second toner image is applied on the same recording medium in the direction of the main axis in a form compressed relative to that of the first print process.

A printer is provided with two similar printing units fed with sheet-like material via a common input section. Printed material is output via a common output section. Groups of transport rollers and individual transport rollers are driven by step motors.

A printer or copier has a developer station which uses a developer mix such as tone and developer. A temperature sensor is provided in the developer station to sense the temperature of the developer mix. The signal of the temperature sensor is fed to a control unit which effects a control of the copier or printer operation, such as by halting operation, effecting cooling, or triggering a warning signal when the temperature reaches an upper boundary.

Aligning device

A detachable coupling is provided for transmitting mechanical rotation from a driving shaft to a driven shaft which extend substantially coaxially with one another. A spring apparatus is provided in the detachable coupling which acts axially and is rigid in the direction of rotation. The spring apparatus presses wedge-shaped catch slots of the detachable coupling in an axial direction against catch pins in the shafts.
