Abstract
An adjusting device for providing a zonewise adjustment of the ink gap with respect to the ink-fountain roller in a printing press is manually adjustable via a respective adjusting screw, and has an additional device for performing a coarse adjustment in a relatively short period of time. A plurality of such devices can be disposed side by side along the ink-fountain roller for providing numerous ink zones along the ink-fountain roller to thereby substantially reduce adjustment time for setting up an ink profile.
