Abstract

A printing press contains a distributor roller, an oscillating roller which has a roller axle and a roller barrel, and a switching device for optionally releasing, in a first operating mode, and locking, in a second operating mode, an oscillating movement of the roller barrel. The oscillating movement is driven frictionally by the distributor roller. The switching device is disposed separately from the roller axle and the roller axle is mounted so as to be adjustable relative to the switching device.
