  • a register unit for changing the Register setting of the first image of the first cylinder and the second image of the first Cylinder-bearing first image cylinder can be controlled.
  • the first operating mode enables it also gives an operator the pages with the first image of the second cylinder and to check the second image of the second cylinder at the same time Register setting of the first image of the second cylinder and the second image of the to change the second cylinder bearing the second image cylinder.
  • the control unit also has another, second mode of operation in which the operator operates the Can change properties of each page of the book.
  • the control unit preferably comprises an analysis table which covers the sides of a printed book, as well as a scanner unit, which covers the pages of the book scans.
  • the control unit can identify the scanned pages and assign one of the image cylinders.
  • the control unit can e.g. the pictures on the save individual image cylinders and the images scanned in book mode on the Compare analytically with the saved images. Then the Control unit identify the appropriate register setting unit to which Register commands are to be sent.
  • the control unit can input on a current operating mode Accept user interface, the user interface giving the operator the choice of Book or page mode enabled.
  • the printing press can have a page register setting device for each image cylinder comprise, which makes register settings together for at least two images.
  • the Images on the image cylinder carrying several images are preferably not individual register set.
  • the printing press is preferably designed as a web offset printing press.
