Introduction
The S Class 2 cutters can also read a barcode. Certain RIP’s have the ability to print a barcode
together with the OPOS markers. This barcode can then be used to identify the job and
retrieve the needed cut data automatically from the computer.
A program has to run on the computer that will act as a barcode server. This program
monitors the connection with the cutter. Once a barcode is sent from the cutter, it will
search for the corresponding file with the correct cut data on a server (where the RIP has
written the cut file) and then send this file to the cutter. Once the file is sent, the barcode
server waits again for a new barcode. In this way a complete roll can be cut without
intervention of the user.
Depending on the program (barcode server) the procedure will have to be started from the
control panel of the cutter or from the program (Summa’s barcode server contains both
options). To start the barcode procedure from the program, refer to the user manual of the
program in question. To start the procedure from the control panel follow the procedure
described in section 3.4.4.3.

Activation of the barcode
Before the first use, the barcode function needs to be activated. The activation happens
through our website (
www.summa.eu/barcode
). The serial number of the cutter is needed
for this activation. The serial number can be found on the serial number label on the back of
the cutter or in the system setup menu. It is recommended to get the serial number directly
from within the system setup menu.
