A printing press, in particular a sheet-fed offset printing press, includes at least one control device, a plurality of printing units, one or more varnishing units, and one or more dryers. Variables determining a dryness of the printing material are determined and used to optimize the drying process. For that purpose, the important material streams influencing the drying process are determined at least for the region of the printing press that contains the drying device(s).

Method for determining operating parameters of a printing press

In a printing machine processing printing material along a processing path, an atmospheric changing device for altering atmospheric conditions in surroundings of the printing material includes a connection module, and a slide-in unit having a module end. The slide-in unit is to be joined to the connection module to form a functional unit. The functional unit is to be slid in an insertion direction into a working position in a printing machine and, in the working position, the functional unit extending transversely with respect to a processing path over printing material running through the processing path. For easy handling of the functional unit, the module end, pointing in the insertion direction, couples with the connection module as the slide-in unit is slid into the working position.
