The invention discloses an item marking system, an item management system, an item marking apparatus, an item management apparatus, an item marking method and an item management method. According to the systems, apparatuses and methods of the invention, the memory of a background control platform is adopted to store graph setting strategies, the corresponding relations of elements of a management serial number numerical value sequence and an identification graph and mapping relations of a plurality of regions of the identification graph and the numerical value sequence; and a controller controls a printer to set the identification graph according to the graph setting strategies and controls the printer to set identification points in corresponding regions of the identification graph according to the management serial number numerical value sequence, the corresponding relations of the identification graph and the elements of the management serial number numerical value sequence and the mapping relations of the plurality of regions of the identification graph and the numerical value sequence. With the systems, apparatuses and methods adopted, a new item identity management mode is realized; the identification graph set on an item through the mode is completely different from identifiers such as two-dimensional codes, other people can only see a simple graph on the item, and cannot obtain the identity information of the item, and therefore, the safety and diversity of item management can be improved.
