A system for producing a finished printed product exhibiting print specific conditions by automatically translating print or job specific conditions to an appropriate set of machine specific functions associated with printing press machines and auxiliaries so as to manipulate and obtain a final desired set of print specific conditions. The system includes software control means for controlling the printing press machines and auxiliaries, and an input device allowing a pressman to enter print specific data into the system.

System for controlling printing press and accessories and auxiliaries therefor

An apparatus for monitoring and controlling the level of the ink in the ink fountain of offset printing presses, using an ultrasonic transducer for measuring the distance between the ink and the transducer which includes a microprocessor system for calculating a time duration of an ink feed cycle to fill the ink fountain to a preset ink level and for generating an ink cycle control signal based on time duration data and ink viscosity characteristics. A control valve activated by the ink cycle control signal delivers ink to the ink fountain.
