Abstract: A method for operating an inking system of a printing press, where the inking system has an ink fountain in which printing ink is kept in readiness, where the inking system has a doctor roller which holds printing ink kept in readiness in the ink fountain, where the inking system has ink sliders or ink blades which adjust the amount of ink to be transferred per ink zone from the ink fountain to the doctor roller, and where the inking system has a film roller which transfers printing ink from the doctor roller to at least one inking system roller downstream from the film roller. At least one ink slider or ink blade is controlled in such a way that the amount of ink transferred zonally to the doctor roller varies over the circumference of the doctor roller.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided for positioning a roll in an inking or damping unit of a rotary press with respect to at least one adjacent roll. The axle of the first roll is mounted in at least one bearing arrangement that is movable with respect to a side wall of the printing unit, and means are provided for determining the position and the pressing forces of the first roll against the adjacent roll. The position and pressing force information is fed to a control device, by means of which the position and the pressing pressure of the first roll can be controlled by combined travel and force regulation.
