Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for imprinting a booklet-like object in a printing station. In order to develop a method and apparatus of the above type while reducing method steps and simplifying a structure of a corresponding apparatus, it is proposed that a booklet-like object (2) is inserted in an opened state into a drawer (3) and fed to a printing mechanism of a standard printer and is covered with a printing mask (6) and pressed into a new defined printing plane, wherein the new printing plane is created using a spacer element (5).

Abstract: A device for printing at least one web that is driven continuously through said device, in addition to a method for printing said web. At least one unit is integrated into the device for the continuous transfer of individual transponders or transponder parts, which operate according to the radio frequency identification principle, from at least one continuous carrier belt to the web. During said process, the running speed of the carrier belt is adapted to the running speed of the web, the latter speed being predetermined by the printing process. A connection device connects the transponders or transponder parts to the web in a predetermined section of the carrier belt and the web, when the speeds have been synchronised.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for fitting at least one web that is driven continuously through the device with transponders, in addition to a method for printing said web. At least one unit (12, 13, 14) is integrated into the device (1) for the continuous transfer of individual transponders (10) or transponder parts (10a), which operate according to the radio frequency identification principle, from at least one continuous carrier belt (8) to the web (2). During the process, the running speed of the carrier belt (8) is adapted to the running speed of the web (2), the latter speed being predetermined by the printing process. A connection device (11, 11a, 11b, 11c) connects the transponders (10) or transponder parts (10a) to the web (2) in a predetermined section of the carrier belt (8) and the web (2), when the speeds have been synchronised.
