Processing system with digital printing and a post-processing station

A processing system having at least one digital printing docking point for connecting at least one digital printing unit and at least one post-processing station connected by a coupling station so that at least one input of the at least one post-processing station is connected to at least one digital printing docking point (120a-d), the processing system comprising:

• a first control unit for controlling the coupling station;
• a second control unit for controlling the at least one post-processing station, wherein the first control unit is supplied with information concerning the product output of the at least one digital printing unit and at least one processing attribute of the product output, and directly or indirectly transfers the information to the second control unit through a dynamic data feed, and the at least one post-processing station is controlled by the second control unit by this information;
• and
• wherein the coupling station includes a standby revolving conveyor having a plurality of independently conveyable transport units.
