Demand Tagging
Once configured, this function is automatic requiring no user interven-
tion other than periodically changing the tag printer paper color.
AUTOMATIC NUMBERING
The demand tagging function needs no additional tag number like the
preprinted tagging function. Instead, demand tags are assigned auto-
matically by the system using the invoice number to which they are
associated. The piece count on the
VIVI
VIVI
VI determines the number of tags to
print, one for each piece. Under configuration, an additional master tag
can be forced to print with each order for attachment to the invoice.
PRINTED FORMAT
Demand printed tags have an associated document editor which allows
the tag format to contain almost any type of information within the space
limits of the tag size. Since there is a large amount of information that
could be printed on a demand tag, the document editor allows the user
to customize the printed tag to meet the exact needs of the drycleaner.
Tag information typically available includes:
• Tag number (invoice number)
• Customer name
• Piece X of total Y count
• Item description
• Promised date
• Lot # / pieces in lot
TAG STYLE
Demand tag printing uses blank wet strength perma-fiber tag stock
available in the 10 industry standard colors. Tags are typically printed
with a dot matrix type printer using an indelible ink printer ribbon to
eliminate ink bleed on garments during the cleaning process. Blank tag
stock comes in various types:
• Perforated continuous buttonhole size for shirt laundry garments.
• Perforated continuous for drycleaning garments.
• Roll paper uses a special printer with an internal paper cutter.
The advantage of the roll paper printer is that it can print almost any
size tag height under program control; however, this tag is only 3 inches
wide.
