Overview of on-line printing of required labels

This document will guide you as supplier through the various steps that are needed in order to provide each product package with appropriate labels as well as each master box with its own label.

The principal is that the label design and content is kept and stored on files that can only be updated by authorized staff. However, through a web interface this information can be retrieved on a world-wide basis from a computer with an internet connection.

The overall idea is that labels and master-labels should be printed on demand — the system is designed around Zebra brand of label printers e.g. model ZT-230 or compatible printer models.

Three (3) kinds of labels are currently used, and in some instances a dedicated artwork is used on the product box.
