ABSTRACT:
There is provided a scheduling apparatus for a printing system, the scheduling apparatus including a memory for storing a set of two or more feed signals, the set of feed signals including a first feed signal and a second feed signal with the first feed signal and the second feed signal corresponding respectively with a special sheet and an imagable regular substrate having opposing sides. The scheduling apparatus further includes a controller for generating the first and second feed signals. The controller, which communicates with each of a print engine and a special sheet insertion apparatus determines whether the imagable regular substrate is to imaged on both of the opposing sides and, when it is determined that the imagable regular substrate is to be imaged on both the opposing sides, the controller schedules the first and second feed signals to be transmitted respectively to the print engine and the special sheet insert apparatus during a single pitch.
