Abstract
Abstract In a printing press of the type having a plate cylinder and an impression cylinder. A first feeder to feed papers to said cylinders on a first line tangent to said plate cylinder and said impression cylinder. A second envelope feeder means to feed envelopes to said cylinders on a second line at an angle to said first line. Letterheads may be printed on the papers from the first feeding means and the envelopes fed from the second feeder may be printed after the said papers are printed, with the same name and address, without changing the printing plate. Means are provided to shift the position of one of said cylinders when said envelopes are being fed by said second feeding means so as to adjust for difference in thickness between papers and envelopes. Means are also provided to simultaneously shut off said first paper feeding means and energize said second paper feeding means. Means are provided to adjust the position of the take-away rollers to accommodate different dimensions of the sheets and said envelopes.
