ABSTRACT:
A plurality of image processing resources including a finishing station provides an image on a copy sheet during a given cyclical time period and a controller sequencer electrically interconnected to each of the resources directs the operation of the image processing resources, wherein the sequencer provides concurrent ready request signals to each of the resources including the finishing stations, each of the resources provide ready or not ready response signals to the sequencer, and dependent upon the ready or not ready signals of each of the resources the controller periodically skips cyclical time periods or pitches to allow the resources to synchronously reach a ready state.
