Abstract

The printer (2) has a printer cylinder (3) possessing an odd number of printing surfaces (4.1,4.2,4.3) and gripper systems (5.1,5.2,5.3). The printing forme cylinder (9) has a number of printing surfaces reduced by one and a corresponding number of active surfaces (8.1,8.2). The circular chain sheet delivery (1) has an odd number of delivery grippers (16) spaced apart by an amount equal to or greater than the peripheral length of an active surface (9.1,9.2) belonging to the printing forme cylinder. The delivery grippers have controls (21,22)
