The S One cutters can also read
a barcode. Certain RIP’s
can print a barcode together with the
OPOS markers. This barcode can then be used to identify the job and retrieve the needed cut
data automatically from the computer.
A program must run on the computer that will act as a barcode server. This program monitors
the connection with the cutter. Once a barcode is sent from the cutter, it will search for the
corresponding file with the correct cut data on a server (where the RIP has written the cut file)
and then send this file to the cutter. Once the file is sent, the barcode server waits again for a
new barcode. In this way, a complete roll can be cut without user intervention.
Depending on the program (barcode server), the procedure will have to be started from the
control panel of the cutter or from the program (Summa’s barcode server contains both
options). To start the barcode procedure from the program, refer to the user manual of the
program in question. To start the procedure from the control panel, follow the procedure
described in section 3.3.4.2.
