Abstract
A portable ink fountain insert for an ink fountain of a printing press includes a body defining a volume for receiving ink, with a discharge gap being defined at the lower front end of the body. A pull is cable guided in a recess in the front wall. A gap control device is connected to the body and to the pull cable for selectively opening and closing the ink discharge gap in response to displacement of the pull cable. An actuating element engages the pull cable for controlling displacement of the pull cable and thus the opening and closing of the discharge gap.
