A printing apparatus places multiple images on a sheet at least once on one side, and at least once on an opposite side. After the first printing, the sheet is inverted by an inverter and sent to a duplex path Sensors both in a feed path and the duplex path detect the side edge of the sheet to register the position of the sheet to an image rendering device A user has the option to input preferences at a user interface the preferences including running average and registration options. More specifically, the user has the option to choose a number of sheets used to calculate a running average for registration of both the simplexed and duplexed sheets The user also has the option to select between image to image registration, and image to page registration for duplex printing.
