Numeratic printing is a technique for printing variable data such as serial numbers, barcodes and dates. The basic steps to be considered to obtain quality and readable prints are as follows:
1. Design and Data Preparation:
Clarify the fonts and code systems to be used (EAN, QR, DataMatrix, etc.).
Fonts and numbers must be at least 6 pt in size and readability must be ensured.
2. Material and Ink Selection:
Choose suitable materials such as thermal paper, plastic, PP or PVC.
Choose durable ink or laser engraving according to the usage environment.
3. Print Calibration and Testing:
Verify that the numbering and coding works without errors by prepress testing.
Determine the appropriate dpi settings for high resolution printing.
4. Verification and Quality Control:
Test the scannability of barcodes and QR codes.
Confirm the accuracy of the numbering and proceed to shipment.
With these steps, your numeric prints will be both accurate and high quality!
