ABSTRACT:
A machine and process for printing sets of documents each having common repetitive impressions such as security backgrounds and general information identifying a banking entity, semi-repetitive impressions such as personalized account and bank branch information, and wherein each document in the set has its own differentiated impressions such as the number of the check and a magnetic reading strip containing machine readable information, comprising a reporter-impression matrix plate which carries the semi-repetitive impressions and which is mounted on a printing cylinder, printing the documents with the semi-repetitive impressions using the reporter-impression matrix plate, providing a further reporter-impression matrix plate which has a printing length divided by the number of differentiated impressions that are needed to print the set of documents, and printing each document with its own differentiated impression which is taken from the further matrix plate. The further matrix plate is mounted on a cylinder which is indexed by the angular amount necessary to bring a new differentiated impression into registry with a print transferring mechanism, each time a new document from the set is to be printed. In this way each document in the set is printed with the same semi-repetitive impression from the first matrix plate, and then printed with its own differentiated impression from the further matrix plate.
