This Ryobi 758 GP is a used 8-color press — a sheet-fed offset press, sometimes referred to as a multicolor offset printing machine — built for high-volume commercial printing across multiple colors in a single pass. Ryobi is a well-established manufacturer of sheet-fed offset presses, serving commercial printers, packaging operations, and print service providers around the world. This example was built in 2014 and is located in France, where it remains in active production.
The press handles a maximum sheet size of 78 x 60 cm (30 x 23 inches) and runs at a maximum speed of 13,000 sheets per hour. Its eight printing units are configured to run either 4/4 (four colors perfecting) or 8/0 (eight colors straight), giving operators flexibility depending on the job requirements. At the time of listing it has recorded 51 million impressions, reflecting a substantial but not unusual level of use for a press of this age and capacity.
The machine is equipped with a notably comprehensive array of automation and quality-control systems. Automatic plate changing via the RPC system reduces makeready times considerably, while remote ink control through the PCS system allows operators to manage ink settings from a central point. Dampening is handled by the Ryobimatic system, and temperature control is managed by two Technotrans cooling units. Anti-marking is addressed through the Super Blue Anti-Marking system, and ink volume is regulated by the IVS ink volume control. Automatic washers are fitted for blanket and roller cleaning.
On the quality-measurement side, the press includes a Techkon Spectro Drive V2 scanning spectrophotometer paired with a 43-inch Wallscreen display, enabling in-line or near-line color measurement and verification. Sheet delivery powder application is handled by the Grafix Digital 3000 powder spray system. The combination of these systems positions this press as a well-appointed production unit suitable for demanding commercial print environments.
