  • the plate exposing devices each of which can be associated with the plate cylinders, can be arranged so as not to interfere with the accessibility to the respective cylinders and rollers for an operator.
  • the paper webs are guided by guide rollers between the blanket cylinder, wherein the guide rollers are arranged displaceably.
  • the paper web guide is very simple, since it can be provided between the adjacent machine frame, on the other hand can be moved by moving the guide rollers, the paper web so that the not covered by the paper web printing units are optimally accessible to the operator.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that ink transfer rollers from each other and can be adjusted to each other.
  • the two printing units which are operated by an inking unit, can be switched on and off in terms of coloring, whereby a great deal of flexibility can be achieved.
  • blanket cylinders arranged between the machine frames are offset from one another, pedestals for the operator can be placed in this area. These attached platforms can be moved in height, thus giving the operator optimum access to the various printing units.
  • the web-fed rotary printing press shown here is constructed from four printing towers 8, 9, 10, 11.

  • the machine frame 12 of the printing towers 9 and 10 each carry two printing units 13, while each machine frame 12 of the right side printing tower 11 in turn carries only one printing unit 13.
  • an inking unit 14 is arranged centrally.
  • these inking units 14 are shown in FIG. 2 only in each of the lowermost machine frames 12 of the printing towers 8, 9, 10, 11.
  • Each of these inking units 14 is composed in a known manner from a color chamber, transfer rollers and applicator rollers.
  • the inking units 14 of the printing units 13, which are accommodated in the two middle printing towers 9 and 10, are each designed so that an inking unit 14 is provided for each two printing units 13.
  • left-side printing tower 8 and the right-side printing tower 11 only one printing unit 13 is provided per machine frame 12 so that their inking units 14 only need to ink a printing unit 13.
  • the inking units 14 are arranged centrally in the machine frame 12.
  • the blanket cylinders 15 of each printing unit 13 are each at the edge over the respective side of the machine frame 12.
  • the plate cylinder 16 are each arranged on the side edge of the machine frame 12 and cooperate in a known manner with the corresponding blanket cylinder 15.
  • a dampening unit 17 is also provided, which serves the application of the dampening solution to the plate cylinder 16.
  • dampening units are used which, in accordance with the inking units, in each case moisten two printing units together.
  • the web-fed rotary printing press is in printing position.
  • the blanket cylinders 15 are set against each other, and that in each case between the blanket cylinders 15, the paper web 18 is passed.
  • the printing units of the printing tower 8 with the left in Fig. 2 arranged printing units 13 of the printing tower 9 together, the right-side printing units 13 of the printing tower 9 cooperate with the left-side printing units 13 of the printing tower 10, etc ..
  • the Paper webs 18 each extend between two printing towers 8 and 9 or 9 and 10 or 10 and 11 therethrough.
  • the printing units 13 with the centrally housed in the machine frame 12 inking units 14, the printing units are in comparison with known machines, as one previously described, very close to each other, which in addition to the simpler structure of the printing press, a relatively large space savings can be achieved can.
