Abstract
A printing system includes a plurality of marking engines for applying images to print media. An output destination is configured for receiving imaged print media from the plurality of marking engines. A print media transport system conveys print media between the marking engines and the output destination. A control system determines whether the marking engines are printing images of consistent or acceptable gloss and, where the marking engines are determined not to be consistent or providing acceptable gloss, adjusts at least one of the plurality of marking engines to reduce a variation in gloss between images applied by the marking engines.
