A method may include the steps of providing a printing assembly that includes a plurality of printing modules (M1-M4) that each include a specific toner color, wherein a first printing module (M2) is failing and at least one second printing module (Ml) is functioning; determining a toner use demand for the plurality of printing modules; and swapping the first printing module with the at least one second printing module to facilitate reducing a downtime of the printing apparatus, wherein the first printing module has a toner use demand that is substantially greater than the toner use demand of the at least one second printing module. |
