Abstract
The invention is in the field of timing control of electrographic machines. The invention is particularly suited for changing from one frame mode to another. Printing processes and apparatus are provided wherein timing signals are generated, such as one periodic timing signal having a period corresponding to a first frame size, and another alternative periodic timing signal having a period corresponding to a second frame size that is different from the first period The printing process and apparatus creates indicium that are at variable distances and create alternate frame modes to improve productivity with receiver sheets of various sizes. A splice indicium indicating a location of a splice in the electrographic imaging member may also be provided.
