Abstract
A printing press including at least one impression cylinder, at least one plate cylinder, a pair of swivel arms corresponding to each plate cylinder and pivotal about a central axis of the plate cylinder, and a transfer cylinder corresponding to each plate cylinder and supported by the pair of swivel arms is disclosed. The swivel arms can be pivoted, so that each transfer cylinder can be moved between a printing position where the transfer cylinder is engaged with the running web and a non-printing position where the transfer cylinder is disengaged from the running web. The transfer cylinders of the present invention also can be commonly adjusted to vary the pressure against a running web.
