Chapter 1 Unpacking The Printer
Bar Code Verification
The most important consideration when printing a bar code is to ensure the
bar code will be scanned properly. Incorporating a bar code quality procedure
in the printing process is the best way to ensure that bar codes are being
printed correctly. A properly implemented verification procedure will increase
overall bar code quality, reduce waste from misprinted bar codes, and
achieve high first time read rates, which is an increasingly important factor in
newer, more efficient systems, where manually entered data is not acceptable
as a back up function. Verification also minimizes the costs of returned
products due to poor reading or unaccountable bar codes.
RJS designs and manufactures the world’s most complete line of bar code
verification products, including their portable Inspector and Laser Inspector
models, On-Line Inspector and AutoScan II series. For more information on

Unpacking The Printer
The printer is shipped in a carton and protective bag. Keep all packing
material in case you need to move or ship the printer again. Avoid touching
the electrical connectors to prevent electrostatic discharge damage while
setting up the printer.
CAUTION
The discharge of electrostatic energy that accumulates on the surface
of the human body or other surfaces can damage or destroy the print
head or electronic components used in this device.
CAUTION
Damage to the printer interface connector may result from placing the
