A method for printing a multi-color image on a web that is moved in a transport direction along a plurality of printing units for respectively printing one color separation of the multi-color image. A line clock is determined for the printing unit being the first one in transport direction, as a function of the transport speed of the web, and a plurality of synchronization marks is printed with the web, said synchronization marks located in a region of the web that is outside the region of the multi-color image, and printed at a prespecified clock that is formed of a partial set of the line clock. The synchronization marks are detected at a position between the first and the second printing units, and a line clock for the second printing unit in the direction of movement is determined based on the detection of the synchronization marks.
