An assembly for the metered application of a liquid or pasty medium, to a driven printing cylinder includes a container which is fillable with the medium which provides an outlet opening facing the cylinder. A metering roller is rotatably mounted in the outlet opening and has a portion which protrudes from the outlet opening and can be pressed against the driven cylinder. A metering gap formed between the outer surface of the metering roller and a boundary surface of the outlet opening is adjustable.
