Abstract

Printing system including at least a first and a second print head in which the printing system is configured in such a way that the first and second print heads can be adjusted actuator-based with respect to a printing medium by positioning and orienting using an adjustment actuator. The printing system includes at least one adjustment actuator less than the number of print heads provided in the printing system, and an auxiliary device is provided in the printing system such that with the aid thereof an operative connection of the at least one adjustment actuator with the first print head can be released and/or created, and an operative connection with the second print head can be created and/or released, preferably also actuator-based or in a pneumatic and actuator-based manner, and particularly preferably automatically.
