A method to increase productivity on digital production press machines following an interrupt job includes sending an expected termination point with continuation data back to a digital front end when the machine terminates the original job, as opposed to waiting until the last schedule sheet exits the machine. In this manner, the digital front end may resubmit the continuation of the original job sooner, thus reducing or eliminating the skipped pitches. Final termination information is determined and compared to the continuous data. If there is a discrepancy, the machine may cycle down and recalculates to ensure job integrity.
