Abstract

A system for coating printing materials with coating fluids and a method for operating the system include, in a first step, coating printing material with a first coating fluid using a coating device of the system and keeping a first feed device of the system connected to the coating device for feeding the first coating fluid to the coating device using the first feed device. In a second step following the first step, printing material is coated with a second coating fluid using the coating device and a second feed device of the system is kept connected to the coating device for feeding the second coating fluid to the coating device using the second feed device. In a third step carried out after the first step and, at least to some extent, during the second step, the first feed device is flushed through with a cleaning fluid.
