ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are disclosed for numerically adjusting the home position of a plurality of ink fountain blades in a printing press. In the printing press, apparatus is provided for adjusting the ink feed amount to be supplied from an ink fountain into an ink fountain roller by adjusting the position of these ink fountain blades, supplying ink to a printing plate through the ink fountain roller, and printing the ink supplied on the printing plate on a printing sheet. The present method and apparatus first position each ink fountain blade at its home position, then set the indication of the position of each ink fountain blade at a predetermined value. Each ink fountain blade is then adjusted by the same amount while observing the indication of the position of each ink fountain blade. Finally, the position of each ink fountain blade as so adjusted is stored as a new home position.
