Abstract

A method for checking intermediate, part or end products during the production process without using marks is disclosed. The print image of the intermediate, part or end product produced on a digital printing press is scanned at least after a predetermined production step in order to subsequently compare the scanned print image with stored product data. Based on the comparison, the check of the previous processing steps and/or the calculation of the subsequent control actions for the order allocated to the intermediate, part or end product and the control actions by the production device are carried out.
