producing a printing substrate having a radiation-curable coating by:
i) pinning the radiation-curable coating by applying a first radiation at a first location in the printing machine, and
ii) completely curing the pinned radiation-curable coating by applying a second radiation at a location different than the first location in the printing machine;
using the same electrical radiation source or sources in a first electrical operating mode to apply the first radiation and in a second electrical operating mode to apply the second radiation; and
