Accordingly, four-color printing is accomplished through three printing units in view of the whole printing effect. As a result, color pins in each printing unit match well to thus enable a printing quality of printed matters to be excellent.
• a moving path of the printing paper 50 is changed and the printing paper 50 contacts a particular blanket cylinder in a surface-to-surface contacting manner in the first and fourth printing units, in the present invention.
