Hi Carsten,
I have another solution for you, you could use a layer to place the header
on every page.
\setuppagenumbering[location=]
\startsetups[pagehead]
\bTABLE[offset=3pt]
\bTR
\bTD[align={right,lohi},height=27mm,width=35mm] LOGO \eTD
\bTD[align={middle,lohi},height=27mm,width=80mm] titel \eTD
\bTD[align={right,lohi},height=27mm,width=45mm] other stuff \eTD
\eTR
\bTR
\bTD[align={right,lohi},width=35mm] left \eTD
\bTD[align={middle,lohi},width=80mm] middle \eTD
\bTD[align={middle,lohi},width=45mm] Page:~\pagenumber\ of \lastpage \eTD
\eTR
\eTABLE
\stopsetups
\definelayer
[pagehead]
[width=\paperwidth,
height=\paperheight,
state=repeat]
\setlayer
[pagehead]
[hoffset=\backspace,
voffset=\topspace]
{\setups{pagehead}}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=pagehead]
Greetings
Wolfgang
