Abstract
The present invention is directed to an anilox roll printing ink hand proofing device which includes a base frame having an elongated member adapted to receive a handle and sideframes; a handle connected to the base frame, sideframes on the base frame, a nesting subframe for an anilox roll, an anilox roll, a doctor blade on the nesting subframe, blade adjustment capabilities, and a transfer roll. The handle includes a hollow elongated member and contains a pressure rod in the hollow elongated member. There is also a pressure rod adjustment mechanism connected to the pressure rod and to the handle so as to indirectly change the pressure on the anilox roll against a transfer roll. Finally, there is a pressure rod release mechanism attached to one of the rod, the pressure rod adjustment mechanism and the handle so as to act as a quick release to release the pressure between the anilox roll and the transfer roll without affecting the pressure rod adjustment mechanism setting.
