Designing the labels
The graphical design of the Barcode label is created in Intermec's own label-shop ensuring company logo and important symbols for weight and dangerous goods can be transferred in the print process. Using BlueSeries it is possible to save labels centrally on the iSeries for all printers – with options for graphics, fonts, barcodes and symbols.
Print-data can be reformatted and moved to the desired position on the label. All functions can be conditioned, meaning that the label design dynamically changes to reflect print-data.
The process is simple, once the setup has been made
The Barcode label is designed in the designer tool, provided by the printer manufacturer/supplier. The label is then “printed” to a file.
BlueSeries will use the Input expert to read the spool file and pickup the relevant information. These data are stored in Business Objects.
The Output expert merges the print file and the Business Objects with a resulting ASCII Spool file that is routed to the Barcode Label Printer.
You can print the labels as a spool job, or by choice connect directly to the printer.
