Abstract

A measuring device includes a receiving device that detects measurement information indicative of a position and/or orientation of a position-modifiable component of a printing station having a print head whose position and/or orientation is adjustable by a motor and that transfers measurement information via a link. A receiving holder then introduces this receiving device into a structure that holds it at a defined position relative to the position-modifiable component. Suitable structures in which the receiving device can be introduced include a container-holding device and a receiving element for a container-holding device.
