Abstract

This invention relates to a process and a printing press for the production of multicolor impressions with several plate cylinders with corresponding inking mechanisms, whereby multicolor printing is made possible in the so-called direct printing process from plate to paper with a plate feed for the flexible printing plates or films and an automatic feed to the impression cylinders. Then the sheets to be printed are introduced via a sheet feed to the impression cylinder, and after the printing has been done, the used printing plates or films are transferred to an ejection apparatus.
