To enable two intermediate rollers to be selectively associated with a combined damping and inking unit as connecting rollers, or with the applicator roller of the damping unit as a first rider roller and a tandem second rider roller, the spindle of the second intermediate roller is removably received at both ends, a bearing lever pivotable around the axis of the first ink spreader roller. Also, swing levers are pivotally connected, one at each end, to the spindle of the first intermediate roller and each swing lever has guides for guiding the second intermediate roller between its first position as a connecting roller and its second position as a tandem roller laterally below the first intermediate roller and in engagement with the applicator roller of the damping unit.
