Abstract:
1. A printing press system comprising: a first printing press having a first machinery alignment and configured as a newspaper printing press and including at least two first printing units of a first type, each of said at least two first printing units being embodied as a printing tower with each said printing tower having several first printing groups arranged vertically on top of each other and being adapted for multi-color printing, on both sides of a separate web passing through each of said at least two first printing units, each of said several printing groups in each of said at least two first printing units having a first image-conveying printing group cylinder, said at least two first printing units being spaced from each other along said first machine alignment; a first former structure in said first printing press and arranged in said first machinery alignment of said at least two first printing units; a second printing press, having a second machinery alignment and having at least one second printing unit of a second type different from said first type and having at least one second printing group with a second image-conveying printing group cylinder, said at least two first printing units and said at least one second printing unit being different from each other in at least one of a maximum length effective for printing and a circumference of a respective one of said image-conveying printing croup cylinders in said first printing press and in said second printing press, respectively, a dryer arranged in said second machinery alignment of said at least one second printing unit; and an orientation of said first and second printing presses in which said at least one second printing unit of said second printing press is arranged, as viewed from above, positioned laterally beside said first machinery alignment of said first printing units which are each embodied as a separate one of said printing towers, and wherein one of a second web, and a second partial web, which has been imprinted in said second printing unit and which has passed through said dryer, can be deflected from a second transport direction, which extends perpendicularly with respect to said first machinery alignment and to said first transport direction, by 90° and can be conducted into said first transport direction which is parallel to said first machinery alignment.
