D.
Printer keyboard/display used by the operator
Problem:
The operator needs to select a specific label format or print job from his workspace.
Solution:
1.
A Fingerprint application that uses the printer’s LCD display to guide the operator to the desired
label format. The operator then selects the desired label format by using the printer’s built-in
keyboard and LCD display.
2.
The operator presses a key dedicated for selecting the data for the labels to be printed.
3.
The printer sends the request for the data to the host.
4.
The host sends the correct data to the printer that could include the label format as well as
instructions to the operator.
5.
The printer prints the label and the cycle is completed
Benefits:
No PC or terminal needed to communicate to the host with.
E.
Distributed data handling
Problem:
The operator needs to select from different products in a database but there is no network at the
production site that could provide the necessary information.
Solution:
1.
The Fingerprint application is build around a database that could exist in the printer and updated
with a memory card when necessary.
2.
Pressing a key at the built in keyboard will select the item to be printed and the built in LCD display
provides guidance for the operator.
Benefits:
No need to build a network or adding a PC at the site to host the database.
F.
Weighing scale and label printer
Problem:
Print labels with price information based on weight from a scale and a best before date.
Solution:
1.
A Fingerprint application where the information about the product either could be in a host or stored
in the printer.
2.
The scale could be connected directly to the printer.
3.
The operator would then select the right item from the built in keyboard. Along with the label format
information the number of days for the best before date would then be retrieved from the database
either in the printer or in the host.
4.
The weight information would be received as a data string from the weight and the printer would
then calculate the price per kilo. The best before date would be calculated with help of the built in
real time clock.
Benefits:
No extra PC or host system needed.
