A method and apparatus for efficiently using media stamped on a substrate including a nip and pull rollers (40a, 42a), a shuttle (50), a cylinder (10), and a control arrangement. The media (3) has at least one registration mark. The nip and pull rollers (40a, 42a) is coupled to the media (3) and provides the media (3) with a first velocity component. A shuttle (50) is coupled to the nip and pull rollers (40a, 42a) via the media and moves linearly with a variable periodic velocity. By way of providing the media (3) with differing velocities, the nip and pull rollers (40a, 42a) and shuttle (50) working in conjunction with the cylinder (10) are able to efficiently utilize the media (3) from which transfer impressions are placed upon the substrate web (5). |
