ABSTRACT:
A printing system is provided that includes one or more printing modules, the one or more printing modules including a media web transport input; a media web image transfer point; a media web transport output; a primary image transfer system; a secondary image transfer system; and an intermediate image transfer point coupling the primary image transfer system and a secondary image transfer system. The secondary image transfer system is adapted to accept an image from the primary image transfer system at the intermediate image transfer point, and the secondary image transfer system is adapted to transfer the image from the secondary image transfer system to a media web at the media transfer point. The media web transport input and media web transport output provide a media web path to route the media web from the media web transport input to the media web transfer-point, and from the media web transfer point to the media web transport output.
