Abstract

A printing press has a printing unit with a cylinder and a cleaning device that is mounted for selective displacement into an operating position for cleaning the cylinder and into a maintenance position away from the cylinder. The operating position is located within the printing unit and the maintenance position, although being located outside the printing unit, is located on the press. While the press runs in printing operation, the cleaning device is kept away from the operating position.
