FIELD: printing on paper tape. SUBSTANCE: selective invariable information and various information varying to a considerable degree is printed on tape sections, which in the end is divided into separate documents. The system uses at least one printer printing by the method of ionic precipitation and a number of flexographic printers, as well as a data source containing varying information, and the first and second computers. The data read out from the data source by the first computer and in response to the data read out by means of the first computer control the printer operating by the method of ionic precipitation for printing the varying information on paper tape. Commands on the form lag are transmitted from the first computer to the second one. In response to the commands on the form lag flexographic printers are controlled independently by means of the second computer for operational creation of contact and cancellation of contact with paper tape, thus invariable information is printed at least from one flexographic printer on each section of paper tap belonging to a separate document. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of printing. 20 cl, 7 dwg
