Zusammenfassung: | A method for printing a plurality of print jobs (28) on a flat bed printer, wherein each print job (28) specifies an image receiving area with a given shape and given dimensions where an image is to be printed on a recording medium, and wherein each of the print jobs (28) comprises a number of sub-jobs (30) specifying image layers to be printed in a predetermined print order, with print settings being individually assigned to each sub-job (30), characterized by the steps of:
a) grouping the sub-jobs (30) by their print settings;
b) nesting the image receiving areas of the print jobs on a flat bed of the printer; and
c) printing the sub-jobs (30) group by group, with sub-jobs of the same group and from different print jobs (28) being printed in common steps of scanning the flat bed, the scanning steps being performed in a scan order which preserves the print order in each print job. |
