The invention relates to a process and a facility for the operation of a single-color or multi-color printing facility. A first, uniformly designed, idle time occasioning movable machine group of at least one machine unit is used substantially constantly for printing operation. It interacts along a congruent separating line (T), common to all colors, with a second, idle time occasioning machine group of the machine unit, which, for a new run, is exchanged for a further idle time occasioning machine group. The stationary machine groups can be designed differently for the passage of divided or continuous printing material. The separating line runs between plate cylinders of the movable machine group and rubber blanket cylinders of the stationary machine group, which can be components of a rotary sheet-fed or reel-fed printing press. The stationary machine groups are connected by a transport device to a turning device for receiving the movable machine groups. This makes a substantially continuous operation possible for the printing of finite or continuous printing material.
