1. A device for providing a marking arranged or arrangeable around an object, comprising:
a mechanical interface configured to releasably or irreversibly mount the device to a printer;
a material interface configured to receive a print medium, which is printed by the printer using a print head, as a printed product in a longitudinal direction;
at least one eccentric supported at the material interface to be pivotable about a pivot axis; and
at least one print head actuator configured to move the at least one eccentric to a first pivot position and to a second pivot position different from the first pivot position to provide the marking originating from the printed product,
wherein the eccentric is configured, in a state of the device mounted to the printer using the mechanical interface, to move the print head and the print medium towards each other into a printing position for printing the print medium when the eccentric moves into the first pivot position, and to move the print head and the print medium away from each other into an open position when the eccentric moves into the second pivot position.
