This unique quality control option can inspect every bar code on every label printed on a Printronix T5000r. Specifically, ODV technology analyzes each bar code just after it is printed. This 100% analysis verifies that the print image falls well within each bar code’s published quality specifications to ensure the bar code will scan successfully. If any code on a label fails, the label is automatically cancelled and a replacement label is printed.

Bar code labels are a vital link in your production cycle. Unreadable bar codes reduce efficiency, resulting in delayed response to market needs, non-compliance fines and lagging production lines. Online Data Validation analyzes each bar code to ensure it meets stringent verification standards.

Printronix created Online Data Validation to help you avoid such problems.

• ODV stops bad bar codes from getting into your production or distribution systems - without interruption
• ODV's unique void-and-reprint technology allows the system to run unattended, minimizing cost and allowing almost instantaneous ROI

Printronix has closed the bar code creation process loop with ODV Data Manager, a solution for fully automated bar code quality control that:

• Captures and displays all bar code quality data to ensure enterprise wide remedies for error conditions
• Enables the storage of all bar code quality data in common database applications, such as Oracle and DB2

Combined with Printronix PrintNet Enterprise, ODV closes the loop on bar code quality control and provides unprecedented visibility of mission-critical print operations.
