The leading edge (9) of the print cylinder (1) has recesses (20, 21, 22) into which the register lay (18) and the grippers (19) pass during printing. The print cylinder (1) is preferably an offset litho cylinder with a blanket (23) having portions (24) deflected into the recesses (20, 21, 22), or alternatively cut around recesses (20, 21, 22). <IMAGE>
