A printing apparatus configured to print on the pages of a block of printabl e pages that are pre-bound by a binding along a binding-edge of each page. The pages of the block are arranged in two interconnected stacks that are joined by the flexible binding. Printing is performed on the top surfaces of each o f the stacks, and then a top page is redeployed from one stack to the other. During the redeployment process, the page is turned, thereby revealing an un - printed side of the page. Since the height of each of the stacks changes eac h time a page is redeployed, the printing apparatus includes two height- adjustable stack support tables each associated with a corresponding one of the two stacks. The support tables are configured to adjust their height so as to maintain the planar relationship of the top surfaces of each of the stack s. After printing, the printed pages are removed separated from the unprinted pages. A book-cover is then attached to the printed pages to complete the bo ok.
