Abstract

A rotary printing machine has at least two successive printing stations. A self-contained aggregate is located between these printing stations and can be inserted and removed from between them as a unit. The aggregate has a transfer roller which receives sheets from one of the printing stations, one or more heaters for heating the sheets on the transfer roller, and a reversing roller which receives sheets from the transfer roller, selectively reverses them and furnishes them to the other of the printing stations.
