Abstract
An inking device is used to ink a cylinder or a roller of an intaglio printing inking unit. A doctor blade device is located in the vicinity of the ink level of the printing ink in an ink trough of the ink application device. The ink trough, the doctor blade device and the cylinder or roller to be inked can be heated. This allows the use of solvent-free printing inks at temperatures in the range of 100° C.
