  In a conventional web offset press for newspapers, the folding machine is provided with a single operation panel, and the operator operates the operation panel while checking the discharged printed material while operating the folding machine. By controlling the machine, it is possible to suppress defective printing.

  By the way, in the rotary offset press for newspapers, in addition to newspapers, other printing such as advertisements is performed. When such separate printing is performed by a conventional newspaper offset rotary printing press, the newspaper offset rotary press is configured to print one type at a time. Reprinting is in progress. For this reason, the printing operation of the separate printing by the newspaper offset rotary printing press is performed before and after the printing operation of the newspaper in consideration of the printing preparation time and the operation switching time, and the work efficiency is not good.

  For this reason, in order to improve the working efficiency, a newspaper offset rotary printing press capable of performing separate printing simultaneously with a newspaper has been considered. That is, according to this newspaper rotary offset printing press, different types of printed matter can be created simultaneously. At this time, when two types of printed matter are simultaneously created by a web offset press for newspapers, if a single folding panel is used to control the folding machine with respect to one printed matter, In some cases, the folding machine may be controlled for the other printed matter. For this reason, it is preferable that the folding machine is provided with a plurality of operation panels corresponding to a plurality of types of printed matter in order to reduce erroneous operations by the operator.

  However, if the operation panel is increased, the apparatus cost may increase.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an operation control method for a rotary printing press and an operation device that can suppress erroneous operation by an operator without significantly changing the conventional configuration.

  The rotary printing machine according to the present invention can print on the web to be conveyed, and can control the rotary printing press main body capable of simultaneously creating a plurality of different types of printed matter from the printed web, and the rotary printing press main body for each printed matter. A control device and an operation device that can output an operation signal for controlling the rotary printing press main body for each printed matter to the control device, and the control device includes information on availability of operation for each printed matter. On the basis of this, an operation control unit capable of controlling the operation device is provided so that the operation by the operation device can be performed or cannot be performed for each printed matter.

  In this case, the operation device has operation setting means that can be set so that the operation by the operation device can be performed or cannot be performed for each printed matter, and the operation setting means allows the operation by the operation device to be operated for each printed matter or When the operation is set to be impossible, the operation device outputs the setting by the operation setting means to the control device as availability information regarding the availability of operation for each printed matter, and the operation control unit operates based on the availability information. It is preferred to control the device.

  On the other hand, in this case, the operator further includes an operator identification device that can identify the operator who operates the operation device and can transmit the identification information of the identified operator to the control device, and the control device receives the identification data for receiving the identification information. And an availability information setting unit for setting availability information regarding the availability of operation for each printed material according to the received identification information. When the identification information transmitted from the operator identification device is received, the availability information setting is performed. The unit may set availability information according to the identification information, and the operation control unit may control the operating device based on the availability information.

  Further, in these cases, the rotary printing press main body has a printing device capable of printing on the conveyed web, and a folding device capable of simultaneously creating a plurality of different types of printed materials from the printed web, and a control device. Is a folding machine control unit capable of controlling the folding machine, and the operation device is preferably a folding machine operation unit connected to the folding machine control unit.

  The operation control method of the operation device of the present invention operates a rotary printing press main body capable of simultaneously producing a plurality of different types of printed matter from a printed web while performing printing on a conveyed web via the control device. In the operation control method of the operation device, an operation control process is provided for controlling the operation device so that the operation by the operation device can be performed or cannot be performed for each print product based on availability information regarding the availability of operation for each print product. It is characterized by that.

  According to the operation control method of the rotary printing press of claim 1 and the operation device of claim 5, for example, the operation of the operation device relating to a desired printed material (for example, “print 1”) can be enabled. It is possible to disable operations related to other than the desired printed matter (for example, “print 2”). For this reason, even if the operator who operates the operating device performs an operation related to “print 2”, the operation is not possible, so that an erroneous operation by the operator is not caused.

  According to the rotary printing press of the second aspect, the operator can operate the operation device related to a desired printed material (for example, “print 1”) by operating the operation setting unit of the operation device. On the other hand, operations related to other than the desired printed material (for example, “print 2”) can be disabled. Accordingly, the operator can set the operation by the operation device to be operable or impossible for each printed matter by his / her own operation. The operation setting means is preferably constituted by various buttons provided on the operation device.

  According to the rotary printing press of the third aspect, the operator can be identified by the operator identification device, and the availability information can be set according to the identification information of the operator. Thereby, the operator does not need to set the permission information by himself. That is, by identifying an operator by the operator identification device, an operator who operates the operation device can perform only an operation related to a predetermined printed matter. Thereby, for example, the print operation setting data can be set according to the skill level of the operator. Examples of the operator identification device include an ID information recognition device that recognizes ID information owned by the operator, a fingerprint authentication device that recognizes the fingerprint of the operator, and the like.

  According to the rotary printing press of claim 4, the folding machine of the rotary printing press main body can be operated for each printed matter. At this time, even if the operator who operates the folding machine operation unit performs the folding machine operation other than the desired printed matter, the operation is impossible, so that an erroneous operation by the operator is not caused.

Accordingly, when a plurality of webs W are overlapped and introduced from the web pass device D, the webs W are vertically folded in each of the folding units F1 and F2, cut into a predetermined length, horizontally folded, and then desired. Fold book (newspaper: printed matter) can be formed, and this fold book can be discharged.

  Here, a series of printing operations by the newspaper offset rotary printing press 10 will be described. In this newspaper rotary offset press 10, the printing units U1 to U5, the infeed devices I1 to I5, and the folding units F1 and F2 can be driven independently. Of course, it is possible to create two different types of printed matter at the same time. That is, one of the two types of printed matter is printed using a part of the printing units U1 to U5 and then discharged from one folding unit F1, and the other The printed matter is printed using the remaining printing units and then discharged from the other folding unit F2. Hereinafter, a case where two types of different printed materials are created simultaneously will be described.

  First, when the webs W are supplied from the paper feeding units R1 to R5 to the printing units U1 to U5 via the infeed devices I1 to I5, the printing units U1 to U5 Four-color printing and two-color printing are performed on both sides. Next, the plurality of webs W printed by the printing units U1 to U5 are vertically cut by the cutter in the web pass device D, and the travel route is changed. According to the printed matter, the web group introduced into the folding unit F1 and the web group introduced into the folding unit F2 are divided and overlapped in a predetermined order. Then, when the two web groups superimposed by the web pass device D are introduced into the folding machine F, the respective web groups superimposed in each of the folding units F1 and F2 are vertically folded and then predetermined. Are cut in the horizontal direction and are folded in the horizontal direction to create a desired origami, and thereafter, the origami is discharged. Thereby, two types of different printed matter can be created simultaneously. In this embodiment, since the folding machine F including the two folding units F1 and F2 is used, there are two types of printed matter that can be created at the same time. Two or more possible printed materials can be used. In the present embodiment, the folding machine has a plurality of folding units. However, a plurality of folding machines having a single folding unit may be provided.

  Incidentally, in the newspaper offset rotary printing press 10, as described above, the printing units U1 to U5, the infeed devices I1 to I5, and the folding units F1 and F2 can be driven independently. . The printing units U1 to U5 and the infeed devices I1 to I5 can be driven and controlled by the printing unit controllers 60, and the web pass device D and the folding machine F can be driven and controlled by the folding controller 70. ing.

  Moreover, all the controllers 60 and 70 are connected to the two operation management control apparatuses 12, and the two operation management control apparatuses 12 are the printing units U1 to U5, the infeed apparatuses I1 to I5, and the web pass apparatus. It is possible to perform initial print settings for D and the folding units F1 and F2.

  By the way, when two types of printed matter are created simultaneously in the newspaper rotary press 10 described above, one of the plurality of printing units U1 to U5 (hereinafter referred to as “print 1”) is used. It is necessary to select the printing units U1 to U5 for creating and the printing units U1 to U5 for creating the other printed material (hereinafter referred to as “print 2”). At this time, it is necessary to select the infeed devices I1 to I5, the compensator rollers 31 of the web pass device D, the folding units F1 and F2, and the like in the same manner. In this case, the operator operates one of the two operation management control devices 12 to control the printing units U1 to U5, the infeed devices I1 to I5 used for the “print 1”, The compensator roller 31 and the folding units F1, F2 and the like are selected and combined as appropriate, and the other operation management control device 12 is operated to print units U1 to U5 and infeed devices I1 to I1 used for “print 2”. By selecting I5, each compensator roller 31 and each folding unit F1, F2, etc., in combination, the operating conditions for “print 1” and “print 2” in the newspaper rotary offset press 10 are set. .

  Specifically, when the operator operates one of the operation management control devices 12 and sets the operation conditions related to “print 1”, the one operation management control device 12 selects “ Operation condition data relating to “print 1” is generated. That is, the operating condition data relating to “print 1” sets the printing units U1 to U5 that are driven when “print 1” is printed. Similarly, when printing “print 1”. The infeed devices I1 to I5, the compensator rollers 31, and the folding units F1 and F2 to be driven are set respectively. Thereafter, the one operation management control device 12 transmits the generated operation condition data of the “print 1” to each of the controllers 60 and 70, whereby each of the printing units U1 to U5 used for the “print 1”. , Each infeed device I1 to I5 used for "print 1", each compensator roller 31 used for "print 1", and each folding unit F1, F2 used for "print 1" can be driven It becomes. The operation condition data relating to “print 2” is generated by the other operation management control device 12 in the same procedure. In this embodiment, the operation condition data related to “print 1” and the operation condition data related to “print 2” are generated using two operation management control devices, but the present invention is not limited to this. The operation condition control data relating to “print 1” and the operation condition data relating to “print 2” may be generated using the operation management control apparatus.

  Here, the folding machine controller 70 includes a folding machine side data receiving unit 74 that receives operating condition data, and a folding machine display control unit 75 that displays various control screens on the folding machine operation panel 50 based on the operating condition data.

The various control screens displayed by the folding machine display control unit 75 include, for example, a compensation operation screen G1 for adjusting a plurality of compensator rollers 31 of the web pass device D. Hereinafter, the compensation operation screen G1 is taken as an example. I will explain.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the compensator operation screen G1 adjusts the position of each compensator roller 31 of the web pass device D, and operates the folding machine operation panel 50 to change the position of each compensator roller 31 in the radial direction. By adjusting in the (horizontal direction), the cutting position in the conveyance direction of the web W can be adjusted. The compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 2 is an initial screen. Here, a plurality of compensator information 78 relating to a plurality of compensator rollers 31 is displayed in the center of the compen- sation operation screen G1. Each compensator information 78 includes a “tension” button 80 and a “sag” button 81. It consists of two adjustment buttons 80, 81 and a set value 79 displayed between the two adjustment buttons 80, 81 and set by the two adjustment buttons 80, 81. The operator moves each compensator roller 31 in the tension direction of the web W by operating the “tension” button 80, while moving the compensator roller 31 in the slack direction of the web W by operating the “sag” button 81. Can be moved. Thereby, it is possible to adjust the cutting position in the conveyance direction of the web W by adjusting the plurality of compensator rollers 31 as appropriate. In addition, a plurality of screen switching buttons 84 for switching to other various control screens are arranged on the lower side of the compensation operation screen G1. By pressing any screen switching button 84, other various control screens are displayed. You can switch to

  By the way, in order to adjust the compensator roller 31 used for “print 1”, if the folding machine operation panel 50 is operated while visually recognizing the compensator operation screen G1, the “print” which does not require adjustment due to an erroneous operation by the operator. There is a possibility that the compensator roller 31 used for “2” may be moved. In order to reduce such erroneous operations by the operator, the folding machine display control unit 75 displays a plurality of compen- sation information 78 for each printed matter in a distinguishable manner on the compen- sation operation screen G1. Hereinafter, the compensation operation screen G1 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 3, when the received operation condition data relates to “print 1”, the folding machine display control unit 75 determines “print 1” based on the operation condition data related to “print 1”. A plurality of compen- sation information 78 related to each other is grouped and displayed, and a plurality of grouped compen- sation information 78 is arranged and displayed in the order of pages of "print 1". Specifically, when the six compensator rollers 31 among the ten compensator rollers 31 are set to be used for printing “print 1”, the folding machine display control unit 75 sets the “print 1”. The background of the six compensator information 78 related to the six compensator rollers 31 used for printing is displayed in a colored manner, for example, to be green.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4, when the received operating condition data is related to “print 2”, the folding machine display control unit 75 selects “print” based on the operating condition data related to “print 2”. A plurality of compen- sation information 78 relating to "2" is displayed in a grouped manner, and a plurality of grouped compen- sation information 78 is arranged and displayed in the order of pages of "print 2". Specifically, when the four compensator rollers 31 out of the ten compensator rollers 31 are set to be used for printing “print 2”, the folding machine display control unit 75 sets the “print 2”. For example, the background of the four compensator information 78 relating to the four compensator rollers 31 used for printing is displayed in a red color.

  As shown in FIG. 5, when the received operating condition data relates to “print 1” and “print 2”, the folding machine display control unit 75 sets “print 1” and “print 2”. Are grouped and displayed, and a plurality of compensatory information 78 related to “print 2” are grouped and displayed.

  As described above, the six compensation information 78 relating to “print 1” and the four compensation information 78 relating to “print 2” can be grouped by color, thereby reducing operator error. be able to. As a method of grouping for each printed matter, it is conceivable that the colors are classified as described above. However, the method is not limited to this, and a plurality of pieces of compensation information 78 may be grouped by surrounding the printed matter with a frame or the like.

  At this time, a “print 1” mark 82 and a “print 2” mark 83 are displayed at the lower left of the plurality of compensation information 78 on the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. "Mark 82 is colored green, and" print 2 "mark 83 is colored red. That is, the “print 1” mark 82 and the “print 2” mark 83 are displayed when operating condition data related to “print 1” and “print 2” is received. For example, when only the operating condition data related to “print 1” is received, only the “print 1” mark 82 is displayed (see FIG. 3), while only the operating condition data related to “print 2” is received. Only the “print 2” mark 83 is displayed (see FIG. 4).

  Further, on the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 5, in the lower right of the plurality of compensation information 78, “print 1” that can collectively operate all of the plurality of compensation information 78 related to “print 1”. A compensation operation button 85 and a “print 2” compensation operation button 86 capable of collectively operating all of the plurality of compensation information 78 related to “print 2” are provided. The “print 1” compensation operation button 85 and the “print 2” compensation operation button 86 are also displayed when operating condition data relating to “print 1” and “print 2” is received, as described above. . For example, when only operating condition data relating to “print 1” is received, only the “print 1” compensation operation button 85 is displayed (see FIG. 3), while only operating condition data relating to “print 2” is received. In this case, only the “print 2” compensation operation button 86 is displayed (see FIG. 4).

  By the way, in the above-described compensation operation screen G1, a plurality of compensation information 78 can be identified for each printed matter by receiving operating condition data relating to “printed matter 1” and “printed matter 2”. In this case, the operator who operates the folding machine operation panel 50 can operate the compensation information 78 related to the desired printed matter while recognizing the desired printed matter by visually recognizing the compensation operation screen G1. Can be reduced. However, since a plurality of pieces of compensation information 78 related to “print 1” and “print 2” can be operated on the compen- sation operation screen G1, the operator operates the compen- sation information 78 related to other than the desired printed matter. There is a risk of it. For this reason, in this embodiment, even if the operator operates the compensation information 78 related to other than the desired printed matter, the operation of the compensation information 78 related to other than the desired printed matter is disabled. Hereinafter, the characteristic part of this invention is demonstrated concretely.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, a plurality (two in this embodiment) for setting whether or not the operation of the compensation information 78 can be performed for each printed matter is shown in the lower right of the compensation operation screen G1. Operation setting buttons 90 and 91 (operation setting means) are provided. Specifically, the two operation setting buttons 90 and 91 include a “print 1” operation setting button 90 and a “print 2” operation setting button. 91. For example, when the “print 1” operation setting button 90 is pressed to light the background in green, the compensation information 78 regarding “print 1” can be operated, while the “print 1” operation setting button 90 is again displayed. When the button is pressed to return the background to the uncolored state (turn off the light), the operation of the compensation information 78 relating to “print 1” becomes impossible. Similarly, when the “print 2” operation setting button 91 is pressed to light the background in red, for example, the compensation information 78 regarding “print 2” can be operated, while the “print 2” operation is performed again. When the setting button 91 is pressed and the background is returned to the uncolored state (turned off), the operation of the compensation information 78 related to “print 2” becomes impossible.

  When the “print 1” operation setting button 90 and the “print 2” operation setting button 91 are operated on the compen- sation operation screen G1, the operation signals are related to “print 1” and “print 2”. It is sent to the folding machine controller 70 as setting data (allowability information). In other words, by operating the “print 1” operation setting button 90, the printer operation setting data indicating that the operation related to “print 1” is possible or that the operation related to “print 1” is impossible is folded. It transmits to the controller 70. Similarly, by operating the “print 2” operation setting button, the print operation setting data indicating that the operation related to “print 2” is possible or the operation related to “print 2” is impossible is folded. It transmits to the controller 70.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 1, the folding machine controller 70 has a setting data storage unit 95 capable of storing the above-described printing material operation setting data, and a folding machine operation panel based on the stored printing material operation setting data. And the folding machine display control unit 75 for controlling 50.

  Here, a series of operations by the operator of the compensation information 78 displayed on the compensation operation screen G1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  In the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 2, the folding machine controller 70 has not received operating condition data relating to “print 1” and “print 2”. Therefore, the “print 1” operation setting button 90 and the “print 2” operation setting button 91 cannot be operated on the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 2, and the operator operates all the compensation information 78. It is possible to do.

  In the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 3, the folding machine controller 70 has received operating condition data related to “print 1”. For this reason, on the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 3, the operator can operate the “print 1” operation setting button 90, but cannot operate the “print 2” operation setting button 91. At this time, if the operator operates the “print 1” operation setting button 90 to light the background in green, only the compensation information 78 related to “print 1” can be operated. On the other hand, when the operator operates the “print 1” operation setting button 90 to turn off the background, the operation of the compensation information 78 related to “print 1” becomes impossible. The compensation information 78 other than “print 1” may be operable, or may not be operated.

  In the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 4, the folding machine controller 70 has received operating condition data related to “print 2”. For this reason, in the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 4, the operator can operate the “print 2” operation setting button 91, but cannot operate the “print 1” operation setting button 90. At this time, if the operator operates the “print 2” operation setting button 91 to light the background in red, only the compensation information 78 related to “print 2” can be operated. On the other hand, when the operator operates the “print 2” operation setting button 91 to turn off the background, the operation of the compensation information 78 regarding “print 2” becomes impossible. The compensation information 78 other than “print 2” may be operable, or may not be operated.

  In the compen- sation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 5, the folding machine controller 70 has received operating condition data relating to “print 1” and “print 2”. Therefore, the operator can operate the “print 1” operation setting button 90 and the “print 2” operation setting button 91 on the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. At this time, when the operator operates the “print 1” operation setting button 90 to light the background green, and operates the “print 2” operation setting button 91 to light the background red, Only the compensation information 78 relating to “print 1” and “print 2” can be operated. Next, when the operator operates the “print 1” operation setting button 90 to light the background green, and operates the “print 2” operation setting button 91 to turn off the background, Only the compensation information 78 relating to “Product 1” can be operated, and the operation of the compensation information 78 relating to “Print 2” cannot be performed. On the other hand, when the operator operates the “print 2” operation setting button 91 to light the background red, and operates the “print 1” operation setting button 90 to turn off the background, Only the compensation information 78 relating to “2” can be operated, and the compensation information 78 relating to “print 1” cannot be operated. Finally, when the operator operates the “print 1” operation setting button 90 to turn off the background and operates the “print 2” operation setting button 91 to turn off the background, all the compensation information is displayed. It becomes impossible to operate 78.

  Accordingly, in the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 5, for example, when the background of the “print 1” operation setting button 90 is lit in green and the background of the “print 2” operation setting button 91 is turned off, the folding machine The controller 70 stores, in the setting data storage unit 95, print operation setting data indicating that an operation related to “print 1” is possible and an operation related to “print 2” is impossible. Then, by controlling the folding machine operation panel 50 by the folding machine display control unit 75 based on the printed product operation setting data, the compensation information 78 regarding “print 1” can be operated on the compensation operation screen G1. Compensation information 78 relating to “print 2” becomes inoperable. Similarly, when the background of the “print 2” operation setting button 91 is turned on in red and the background of the “print 1” operation setting button 90 is turned off, the folding machine controller 70 is associated with “print 2”. Print setting operation data indicating that the operation is possible and that the operation relating to “print 1” is impossible is stored in the setting data storage unit 95. Then, by controlling the folding machine operation panel 50 by the folding machine display control unit 75 based on the printed product operation setting data, the compensation information 78 related to “print 2” can be operated on the compensation operation screen G1. The compensation information 78 regarding “print 1” becomes inoperable.

  According to the above configuration, the operator operating the folding machine operation panel 50 by controlling the folding machine operation panel 50 by the folding machine display control unit 75 based on the printing product operation setting data allows the operator who operates the folding machine operation panel 50 to While the operation can be enabled, various operations related to other than the desired printed matter can be disabled. For this reason, even if the operator performs an operation related to something other than the desired printed matter, the operation is impossible, so that an erroneous operation by the operator is not caused.

  Next, a newspaper offset rotary printing press 100 according to a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. Only different parts will be described in order to avoid duplicate descriptions. FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram illustrating a newspaper offset rotary printing press according to the second embodiment. In the newspaper offset rotary printing press 10 according to the first embodiment, by operating the “print 1” operation setting button 90 and the “print 2” operation setting button 91, the print operation setting data is set to the setting data storage unit 95. In the newspaper rotary offset printing press 100 according to the second embodiment, the print operation setting data is set according to the ID information (identification information) identified by the ID information recognition device 101 (operator identification device). The set print operation setting data is stored in the setting data storage unit 95.

  Specifically, the folding machine has an ID information recognition apparatus 101, and the ID information recognition apparatus 101 is connected to the folding machine controller 70. On the other hand, each operator owns his / her ID information stored in, for example, an ID tag. Then, when the operator causes the ID information recognition apparatus 101 to recognize his / her ID information, the ID information recognition apparatus 101 transmits the read ID information to the folding machine controller 70. At this time, the folding machine controller 70 is provided with a print operation setting data setting unit 105 for setting the print operation setting data corresponding to the received ID information. When the printing operation setting data is set by the printing operation setting data setting unit 105, the set printing operation setting data is stored in the setting data storage unit 95. The print operation setting data setting unit 105 sets the print operation setting data according to the ID information. At this time, the print operation setting data setting unit 105 is set using the ID information recognition time by the ID information recognition device 101 as a parameter. The print operation setting data may be appropriately changed.

  Then, the operator whose print operation setting data is set by the print operation setting data setting unit 105 specifically includes a first operator that cannot perform operations related to “print 1” and “print 2”, and “ A second operator capable of operating on "print 1", a third operator capable of operating on "print 2", a fourth operator capable of operating on "print 1" and "print 2", are categorized.

  Here, a series of operations by the operator of the compensation information 78 displayed on the compensation operation screen G1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  In the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 2, the folding machine controller 70 has not received operating condition data relating to “print 1” and “print 2”. For this reason, the first operator, the second operator, the third operator, and the fourth operator can operate all the compen- sation information 78.

  In the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 3, the folding machine controller 70 has received operating condition data related to “print 1”. At this time, the operators capable of operating the compen- sation information 78 regarding “print 1” are the second operator and the fourth operator, and thus the second operator and the fourth operator can operate all the compen- sation information 78. It is possible. On the other hand, the first operator and the third operator can operate the compensation information 78 other than the compensation information 78 related to “print 1”.

  In the compensation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 4, the folding machine controller 70 has received operating condition data related to “print 2”. At this time, the operators capable of operating the compen- sation information 78 regarding “print 2” are the third operator and the fourth operator. Therefore, the third operator and the fourth operator can operate all the compen- sation information 78. It is possible. On the other hand, the first operator and the second operator can operate the compensation information 78 other than the compensation information 78 related to “print 2”.

  In the compen- sation operation screen G1 shown in FIG. 5, the folding machine controller 70 has received operating condition data relating to “print 1” and “print 2”. At this time, the operators capable of operating the compensatory information 78 related to “print 1” are the second operator and the fourth operator, and the operators capable of operating the compensatory information 78 related to “print 2” are the third operator. And the fourth operator. Therefore, the fourth operator can operate all the compensation information 78, and the third operator can operate only the compensation information 78 related to “print 2”. 2 The operator can operate only the compensation information 78 related to “print 1”. The first operator cannot operate all the compen- sation information 78.

  According to the above configuration, the operator can be identified by the ID information recognition device 101, and the print operation setting data corresponding to the operator can be set. This eliminates the need for the operator to set the print operation setting data by himself / herself. That is, when the operator is identified by the ID information recognition apparatus 101, the operator who operates the folding machine operation panel 50 can perform only operations related to a predetermined printed matter. Thus, the print operation setting data can be set according to the skill level of the operator. In this embodiment, the ID information recognition apparatus 101 is used. However, a fingerprint authentication apparatus that recognizes an operator's fingerprint may be used.
