Abstract

A parallel printing system is disclosed which is particularly useful for colour laser printing. The system includes a source of video image data generally derived from a scanner or a graphics system, and a plurality of print engines that, substantially simultaneously, print images output from the source. The printing system also includes a parallel printing desynchroniser that interfaces the source with each one of the print engines and permits asynchronous operation of each of the print engines by having various data stores, a first of which receives synchronous data from the source, and a plurality of other stores, corresponding to each engine, which receive data from the first store simultaneously, and output that data in synchronism with the respective print engine.
