Itwill alsobeundersmodthat anywell known or approved quick drying inks may be used in the printing units.
From the above description it will be seen that I have provided an arrangement of the several units of the press whereby the inks on the freshly printed sides of the web may be thoroughly dried with a minimum travel or the web, the form cylinders of the two printing units at the same time being so positioned that ready access thereto may be obtained.
It is evident that various changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the several parts without departing from the spirit and scope of my invention, and hence I do not intend to limit myself to the embodiment herein shown and described.
What I claim is:
1. In a web perfecting rotary press, first and second multicolor printing units, first and second drying units, the first drying unit being located between the first and second printing units and the second drying unit being located beyond the second printing unit, each printing unit comprising an impression cylinder and a plurality oi iorm cylinders arranged around the side or the impression cylinder opposite a drying unit, a web supply roll, and means for leading the web therefrom through said units. 7 y
2. In a web perfecting rotary press, first and second multicolor printing units, first andsecond drying units, the first drying unit being located between the first and second printing units and the second drying unit being located beyond the for leading the web therefrom through said units.
3. In a web periecting rotary press, first and second multicolor printing units, first and second drying units, the first drying unit being located between the first and second printing units and the second drying unit being located beyond the second printing unit, each printing unit comprising an impression cylinder and a plurality of form cylinders arranged aroundthe side or the impression cylinder opposite a drying unit, said printing and drying units being located in line with one another and in substantially the same horizontal plane, a web supply roll and means for leading the web thereirom through said units.
