Abstract
A method for controlling the print-to-cut register in a web printing press having at least one print unit printing a web, each print unit having at least one drive driving the print unit independently of the other print units. The method includes presetting a web compensator position so as to set a print-to-cut registration between a print unit and a cross-cutter and controlling the print-to-cut register during printing by controlling the drives of the print units and/or a drive of the cross-cutter. A method for controlling circumferential register, as well as a printing press are also disclosed.
