Questions asked by other sellers:

Does it have Presets for paper size and impression pressure? No, but this is a very good feature to have.

I see you have blanket washers you are not currently using, does it have auto impression cylinder or auto ink roller washers? No impression washers, but it does have roller wash.

Looking at your console I can not exactly tell if you have any of the ink density control systems Ryobi offered with the press. Does the press have one of these features? Ryobi PDS Print Density control system or PDS-E Auto or PDS-E. One of these has density sensors in the press the other uses a densitometer. Maybe a scanning densitometer? We have a scanning densitometer, you must make the moves, it’s not automatic.

Do you use prepress data to set the ink keys, CIP4? No, but the previous owner used CIP data on this press.

Do you have the Ink Volume setter software? Yes

Do you have a plate punch for the press. Ryobi made a pretty high tech unit do you have one? Yes, it is nice, it has occulars
