A printing system for printing a repeated pattern of esthetical and/or informative character on a substrate including a plurality of parallel webs is provided. The printing system comprises at least two overlapping non-impact printer units, each of which having a lateral elongation defining a maximum printing width, and a controller connected to each one of the printer units and configured to set an actual printing width extending between a start position and an end position of the lateral elongation, wherein the controller is configured to determine the actual printing width by receiving the lateral position of a non-printed area defined by the interface between two adjacent webs of the substrate and located laterally somewhere in the overlap between two printer units, such that the end position of a first printer unit and the start position of an overlapping printer unit is located within the non-printed area. |
