A pipette for use with a pipette tip of a pipette tip line comprising pipette tips of different types, comprising: • a rod-shaped pipette housing, • a neck at the bottom end of the pipette housing for clamping on a pipette tip with a collar having a mounting opening at its upper end, • a drive apparatus comprising a drive element for displacing a displacement element for drawing in liquid samples into the pipette tip and ejecting the samples from the pipette tip, and an operating element projecting from the pipette housing and displaceable relative to the pipette housing, • a scanning apparatus having a scanning element arranged next to the neck and displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the neck relative to the pipette housing for being displaced by the collar of a pipette tip when clamping the pipette tip onto the neck, • a mechanical display apparatus coupled to the scanning apparatus, wherein the scanning apparatus is designed so that it adjusts a display of the display apparatus which depends on the position of the scanning element relative to the pipette housing, for adjusting a display depending on the type of pipette tip by clamping onto the neck a pipette tip with a height of the collar characteristic of the type of pipette tip, characterized by • a first stop apparatus with a first stop element on the drive apparatus and a second stop element on the pipette housing that can be brought into contact against each other by displacing the drive element in a first direction, • a second stop apparatus with a third stop element on the drive apparatus and a fourth stop element on the pipette housing that can be brought into contact against each other by displacing the drive element in a second direction that is opposite the first direction in order to define a measuring stroke of the drive apparatus together with the first stop apparatus, • an adjusting apparatus with a first adjusting element mounted on the pipette housing, and a second adjusting element on the first or second stop apparatus (32, 44) for adjusting the measuring stroke by adjusting the first adjusting element, • a mechanical counter coupled to the adjusting apparatus for displaying the adjustment of the adjusting apparatus, • wherein the scanning apparatus is coupled to a mechanical range adjusting apparatus on the counter that is designed so that it adjusts a count range of the counter which depends on the position of the scanning element relative to the pipette housing. • a rod-shaped pipette housing, • a neck at the bottom end of the
