The Heidelberg GTO 46-1 is a used single-colour offset press — sometimes referred to as a one-colour litho press — dating from 1978 and currently located in the Netherlands. Single-colour offset presses of this kind are workhorses of commercial and trade printing, used to produce high-quality single-ink impressions on sheet-fed stock across a wide range of print applications. Heidelberg is one of the most recognised names in the printing industry, with a long history of manufacturing sheet-fed and web offset presses as well as finishing and prepress equipment for commercial printers worldwide.
This machine has accumulated 74 million impressions over its working life, a figure that gives buyers a clear indication of its production history. The press handles a sheet size of 43 × 46 cm, making it suitable for a substantial range of standard commercial print formats.
The unit is equipped with Aquaprint dampening, a continuous dampening system that provides consistent and controlled water feed to the printing plate, helping to maintain stable ink-water balance during runs. It is also described as a Plusversion, indicating it was built or upgraded to the enhanced specification within the GTO 46 range. Together, these features suggest a press configured for reliable, quality-conscious production work.
