ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for use in a printing machine including a member for storing a latent image thereon of a document is provided. The printing machine is adapted to produce a printed copy of the document on a substrate. The apparatus adjusts the printed copy output rate thereof. The apparatus includes a latent image generating device for generating the latent image of the document. The latent image generating device has a switch for initiating the generating the latent image of the document. The apparatus further includes an adjustable timer for setting an elapsed time between sequential generations of the latent image of the document and a controller for controlling the printed copy output rate of the printing machine. The controller is adapted to provide for a plurality of printed copy output rates based on the time elapsed between sequential generations of the latent image of the document.
