Abstract

In a method to execute a pause function in an inkjet printing system with at least one printing apparatus, the pause function is triggered to reduce a feed speed of the printing substrate web from a speed during printing operation to a predetermined speed for a predetermined duration. The duration is selected so that the printing substrate has suitable properties with regard to at least one of the elements selected from the group consisting of moisture and temperature under the printing unit of the printing apparatus at an end of the pause function. After ending the pause function, the printing substrate web is accelerated again to the speed during the printing operation.
