Abstract

In a method for simulating a printing process of print jobs in a digital high-capacity printing system with print server and printing apparatus having a plurality of modules: a simulation state of the printing apparatus is activated by (e.g. a user of) a monitoring module of the digital high-capacity printing system, a print job is started with print data at the print server by the monitoring module, the print data is transferred to the printing apparatus, printing is simulated by supplying unrastered print data to an image raster computer of the printing apparatus while data is withdrawn from the image raster computer, and feedback is provided to the monitoring module of the digital high-capacity printing system about the occurrence of an error message. The speed of the removal may correspond to the print speed.
