What does INLINE-LINIE in this context mean?

inline system
Explanation:
Assuming the capitalisation is not present in the source text (as otherwise it would suggest a brand name or company name), IMO Inline is simply a term borrowed from English that describes the configuration on the printing equipment, and Linie is the 'printing line' (i.e. a set of equipment used for printing, which the printed material traverses sequentially).

IMO you could speak of an 'inline line', but to avoid the clumsiness of the repetition you could say 'inline system'. Another option would be 'integrated line', but that would created problems with the verb if you translate it directly from the source text.

printing line extension


Explanation:
Slowly, the fog is lifting. But still, this continues to be a challenge. "Performance enlargement of a web offset printing line". Enlargement instead of enhancement or improvement?

It sounds as if the printing line is extended by the mysterious Jet Web finishing line, and that this extension handles the "full(y) printed web", which "can relating to print jobs be processed" = be further processed depending on print job characteristics...

And the whole thing can be reconfigured "easily on different request" = as required ...

That's all I've got.
