The copy printed on the parts by the plurality of print-heads may include indicia for the sequence of parts of the MPF. The web may then be passed through a digital printer for the printing of variable data on at least some of the parts. The method may further include passing the web through at least one additional print-head for printing a CF coating on the top surface of one or more parts. The printing of the CF coating on the top surface of the one or more parts preferably does not overlap any variable data.
