> Next question to this: The printable area of the sheet is not the complete area, e.g. it has a not-printable margin of 10mm on the left, 2mm right, and 5mm at the top and 5mm at the bottom. How to control these margins, s.t. the cards are only set in the printable area of the sheet? I tried with "topspace", "buttomspace" etc. in \setuplayout, but that does not work now.

You need the \setuppaper command to set the margin because with \setuplayout you can only set the margins for your cards but not for big paper which is printed.

\setuppaper
  [backspace=10mm,
   topspace=5mm]
