<p>Method of scheduling a sequence of pages to be printed with a printer, said printer having a printing station (20) and a duplex loop (28) for returning duplex sheets (26), of which a first page has been printed on one side, back to the printing station for printing the second page on the second side, said duplex loop being capable of accommodating a predetermined number N of sheets at a time, wherein skips in the stream of pages are filled with first pages of duplex sheets or with simplex sheets, without changing the order in which the sheets are completed, characterized in that, when a new print command for printing a new job occurs, the pages of the new job are appended to the remainder of the previously scheduled sequence that has not yet been printed, with re-scheduling of the thus assembled sequence.</p> |
