Problems solved by technology

Therefore, a given printer may no longer be fast enough to print a unique security code onto each specific product
[0007] Furthermore, some prior art methods of applying and verifying security codes are inadequate in terms of speed, scalability, and security
In particular, it is desirable to perform security code verification as fast as possible, however this is difficult using certain methods described in the prior art

Embodiment Construction

[0124] Referring now to FIG. 1 , there is shown a network of computers configured to print data onto products passing along a production line. It can be seen that a printhead 1 is configured to print data onto products passing along a production line 2 . It is shown in FIG. 1 that the bottle 3 initially has a blank label 4 . After the printing operation indicated by the arrow 5 is performed by the print head 1 , sentence information is printed on the label 4 . It should be understood that in an alternative embodiment of the invention, the textual information could be printed directly onto the bottle 3 rather than being printed onto a label adhered to the bottle 3 .

[0125] The print head 1 is provided by a printer 6 which also includes a print controller 7 . The print controller 7 is responsible for supplying the printhead 1 with data to be printed on products passing along the production line 2 . Such products typically include consumer goods such as beverage bottles or c...

Abstract

A method and apparatus for printing a data item. The method comprises receiving at a printer a first component of said data item from an external data source; generating a second component of said data item at said printer; and printing said data item by printing said first and second components.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for generating data items for inclusion in printed images, and also to methods for validating such data. More particularly, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to methods and apparatus for generating security codes for inclusion in printed images and verifying such security codes. Aspects of the present invention also relate to methods and apparatus for validating data stored in a database, and methods and apparatus for generating image templates. Background technique [0002] The production and distribution of counterfeit goods is known to be a serious problem affecting a wide range of goods. [0003] So far, various methods for detecting counterfeit goods have been proposed. In general, some of these methods involve the inclusion of a security code on a product or on packaging associated with such a product. Such security codes typically take the form of an alphanumeric string. ...
