    Can somebody tell me how to get the total Impression count for the life of the machine to come up on the LED screen on a Heidelberg QM-46?

    We pressed S41 and 2 numbers came up. 25.1 was the first and 21.234 was the second. What do those numbers mean. It doesn't look like an imp count.

    S41 shows total revolutions of the machine including idling or turn the hand crank by hand. Those numbers you see mean the machine has been turned 25,121,234 times. If you press S45 you will see the total impressions. In my opinion Total impressions do not tell the whole story. It is possible you only printed 4 million sheets yet the bearings have 25 million revolutions on them.
