Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a labelling system for labelling individual packages, wherein the labelling system comprises a labelling device (1) having functional units and a control assembly (11) which, in a labelling routine, controls the functional units in accordance with a control specification.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a labelling system which comprises a labelling device (1) having a feed assembly (2), a dispensing assembly (4) and an application assembly (6); wherein at least one of these functional units comprises a sensor assembly (8, 9, 10); wherein, in a labelling routine, a control assembly (11) activates the functional units in order to carry out the labelling process; wherein, in a monitoring routine, a monitoring assembly (12) captures the sensor data detected by the sensor assemblies (8, 9, 10), which data correspond to a sensor capture density specified for the corresponding functional unit; wherein the labelling system comprises a user interface (13).
