Pauly Biskuit | Pauly Biskuit Relies on Printronix RFID-ready T5204r Thermal Printers to Simplify Packaging Labeling Processes

Profile
Pauly Biskuit is one of Europe’s largest baked goods manufacturers. Family owned and operated since 1894,
the company employs more than 250 workers at its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Dessau, Germany.
Situation
Each year, Pauly Biskuit produces more than 300 different types of baked goods. At the completion of each
production cycle, pastries and semi-finished products are packed in boxes, which vary by producer, and labeled
with relevant product information including sell-by date, origin and use. Pauly Biskuit was using a labeling
solution that involved storing label information for each individual product and producer on font cards, and then
manually entering that information into the printer in correspondence with production cycles. With three to four
million labels being processed each year, this manually driven process had become increasingly time
consuming. When Pauly Biskuit’s existing printers began to break down frequently, interrupting production, the
company went in search of a new printing and labeling solution.
Goals
- To reduce the cost of doing business by further automating Pauly Biskuit’s complex labeling process
- To ease integration by leveraging already established best practices
- To improve system reliability and performance for increased accuracy and faster time to market
Results
Pauly Biskuit initially installed 12 Printronix T5204r wireless LAN printers in 2005. Using Printronix PrintNet
Enterprise printer management software, the company eliminated the need to manually staff each printer, and
can now reliably control all print processes through its internal wireless network, which has significantly reduced
wait time and system downtime. The Printronix printing system is easy to use, is compatible with the company’s
existing hardware and software, and can quickly print out all common bar code standards, and numerous other
codes including EAN 13, EAN 128, EAN 8 and ITF.
Reaction
“We are extremely satisfied with the performance and reliability of the Printronix printers, with regard to their
capacity to print complex bar codes perfectly.”
H. Winkler
Systems Administrator

Its ability to create sharper images from stained documents or documents with dark colored backgrounds with this CGA board guarantees highly efficient scanning.

The fi-6670A is also bundled with ScandAll PRO image capture software giving the following features

Automatic job separation
The fi-6670A's bundled barcode and patch code reading functionality enables it to separate different jobs with its automatic job separation function. The result is improved digitizing efficiency.

Seamless Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server linkage
ScandAll PRO enables the fi-6670A to seamlessly link with Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server for easy digitized document sharing and viewing administration. The result is even easier document management.

The fi-6670A PA03576-B531 itself is loaded with 2 high end "intelligent" fi-Series functions that enable it to efficiently scan mixed batch documents containing paper of different weights, quality and sizes.

Intelligent multifeed function
The intelligent multifeed function simplifies pre-scanning preparation and improves efficiency by ignoring documents that tend to trigger false multifeed alerts, such as photo and sticky note attached documents.

Trapezoid-shaped and tab attached document cropping / punch hole removal functionality
In addition to being loaded with a function that ensures that trapezoid-shaped documents as well as index tab and sticky note attached documents are scanned in their entirety, the fi-6670A provides a function that removes the circular and angular punch hole representations that are created from scanning loose-leaf sheets, courier service forms and other similar documents.

Primera 4100 Series Disc Publisher

Blazingly Fast Printing and Robotics

Bravo 4100-Series are easily the fastest desktop disc printers and publishers in the world today. At just six (6) seconds to print each disc with 100% coverage in near-perfect quality, you'll be stunned at how fast your jobs will now get completed.
In fact, Bravo 4100-Series is up to 20 times faster than competitors for similar print quality*, making them the fastest desktop disc printers and publishers in the world.
Disc picking and transport robotics have both been optimized for speed, too. A rock-solid and reliable new belt drive system is utilized to deliver 300% faster robotics than previous models. The belt drive system also gives you smoother and quieter operation.

Separate Ink Cartridges for Lower Cost-Per-Disc

Bravo 4100-Series is Primera's first disc printer to offer separate ink cartridges for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black (CMYK). This lets you replace only the color(s) that need replenishing; saving you money on every disc you print. This is especially true if you use more of one color on your discs than another.

Professional-Quality Printing

The built-in, high-resolution inkjet printing is powered by Lexmark®, a world leader in printing technology. With up to 4800 dpi quality, it has the highest printing resolution available from any manufacturer of disc printers and publishers.
Combine this ultra high resolution printing with Primera's TuffCoat with WaterShield™ CDs and DVDs and you'll get the most professional looking discs. TuffCoat with WaterShield discs are highly water, scratch, and smudge resistant. They also have a gorgeous, high-gloss finish unlike anything you've probably ever seen before. Virtually all other brands of inkjet-printable optical media are also supported.

Getting the Discs Out

In applications such as medical imaging and audio/video-on-demand it is imperative that discs are dispensed out the front of the unit. On Bravo 4100-Series, it's an automatic, built-in feature. On some competitive units you have to manually open a door or a drawer every time – a huge inconvenience if you're doing it all day long.

Pick the Bravo that's Right for You

With three models available, there's a Bravo 4100-Series model for almost any disc printing or disc publishing need.

• Bravo 4100 AutoPrinter – 100-disc capacity, print-only version with no drives; perfect for side-by-side use with tower-style disc duplicators
• Bravo 4101 Disc Publisher – 100-disc capacity with one recording drive
• Bravo 4102 Disc Publisher – 100-disc capacity with two recording drives

Bravo 4101 and 4102 may also be ordered with the latest-generation Blu-ray Disc™ recordable drives. With Bravo 4101 Blu or Bravo 4102 Blu you'll be able to record high-definition video as well as perform back-ups of files, photos, video and more. Both 25GB single-layer and 50GB dual-layer discs are supported.

The Most Illuminating Feature

The built-in blue LED lighting not only helps you see what's going on inside, but pulses when supplies are getting low and blinks on/off if an error condition is reported. You'll always know the status of your jobs whether you're sitting next to the unit or standing on the other side of the room.

Powerful Software that's Easy to Use

Using the Bravo 4100-Series is as easy as printing to any office printer. Primera's PTPublisher™ Software has won critical acclaim for its simple, wizard-style interface. Training new operators takes just minutes instead of hours.
Simply choose the type of job you want to perform (data, video, audio, etc.), match with a print file, and press "GO." It's that easy!
Built-in disc design software called SureThing™ Primera Edition (Windows) or DiscCover™ (Mac) lets you place photos, backgrounds, text and graphics anywhere on the disc, including as far into the middle of the disc as you wish – a major limitation with other brands of disc publishers.

Built-In Apps

Extra built-in software applications include:
PTRip™: robotically "RIPs" your personal music CDs and loads them into Apple® iTunes® for iPhone®, iPod® and iPod Touch® or Microsoft® Media Player.
PTBackUp™: automatic, scheduled back-ups of your files to CDs, DVDs or Blu-ray Discs.
PTProtect™: prevents unauthorized duplication of your valuable DVD video files. Three free protections are included.

Integration Made Easy

Sometimes integration is required for applications like PACS/DICOM medical imaging systems, law enforcement and surveillance video, back up and archival, audio and video on-demand and more. Primera makes integration easy with a simple yet comprehensive Software Developer's Kit (SDK) for both Windows and Mac. The SDK is free to qualified developers.

Simply the Best

With their incredibly fast output, superior print quality, valuable extra software, separate ink cartridges for affordable per-disc costs, Windows® and Mac® compatibility, top-notch reliability and more, you won't find a better mid-sized disc printer or publisher. You can feel confident buying a Primera product, too. Over the last ten years we've built more disc publishers than all of our competitors combined.

Government Solutions: Taiwan Launches Healthcare Smart Card

Requirements:
The Government of Taiwan, endeavoring to update their healthcare identification process,
required a program to migrate from a traditional paper based card to a plastic card with a smart
chip. Although the card is primarily a healthcare card, it will also be used as a valid identification document.
Solution:
• Data is collected from an already established base of enrollment and image capture centers.
• Data is transferred to a centralized database.
• Cards are produced on the Datacard® 9000 Series card issuance system from a centralized site.
• The 9000 Series configuration includes a smart card module,
which allows personalization
of the smart chip.
• The personalized chip card can be used online to pay medical premiums and update records every time the card is used.
The Competitive Edge:
Datacard’s established reputation, cutting-edge technology, high performance criteria and reliability in a high volume environment helped
secure the sale.
The Government of Taiwan decided to launch a healthcare smart card to replace several paper documents and cards used for a range of healthcare programs. The new card will be issued to a population base of over 22 million citizens as well as to foreigners holding a valid work permit.
The new smart card will help to reduce fraud, streamline the billing process and improve customer service. In addition, the data on the smart chip can be updated every time the citizen visits a doctor or clinic and citizens can pay medical premiums through the Internet while updating the data on their card.
The composite card includes a smart chip, color photo, secure microtext printing, Optical
Variable Ink (OVI) printing as well as Ultra Violet printing. The card will have an estimated life of 5 to 7 years.
The addition of the color photo allows the card to be used as a valid identification document.
Successful Partnership
Datacard in conjunction with our distributor, Foongtone, received an order for several 9000 Series systems to fulfill the production requirements.

The configuration included a base module, smart card Gen2E module with seven programming stations, an advanced high speed 300 dpi color module, topcoat and 300 dpi UltraGrafix® modules.
Datacard® 9000 Series
Card Issuance System
The 9000 Series card issuance system is the world’s best-selling solution for high-volume issuance. It offers unparalleled productivity and reliability. It is also extremely flexible and can accommodate up to 20 personalization modules, ranging from basic embossing and flat graphics to the most sophisticated, multiapplication smart card personalization.
Looking Towards the Future
The second phase of the healthcare project consists of expanding the card issuance process to allow for decentralized issuance of healthcare cards.

The world’s largest chemical corporation, BASF, was honored as the "World's Most Admired Chemical Company" by Fortune magazine. BASF provides its customers with a portfolio of high-performance products ranging from chemicals, plastics, performance chemicals, agricultural products, refined chemicals to oil & gas. A committed partner to Greater China since 1985, BASF is one of the biggest foreign investors in China’s chemical industry. The company currently operates 15 wholly owned subsidiaries and 8 joint ventures. To be integrated with local markets, BASF maintains eight offices in local regions including Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai, with more than 4,000 employees.
Problem Met
Located in Gaoqiao, Pudong, Shanghai, BASF’s plant uses all types of adhesives to stick 1/4 or 1/2 A4-sized labels on blue plastic containers. BASF’s SAP system requires label information printed in Chinese and English on the same form, as well as the BASF logo, basic plant information, chemical name, lot number, material number and EAN128 code.
BASF employed bar-code printers from other suppliers , but these failed to meet the requirements of the SAP system. With merely three labels printed per minute, it was too slow and was often out of order leading to lost revenue and frustrated operators.
Results
Recommended by Printronix’s local agent, the T5304r was put into trial use by BASF. Printronix offered seamless integration of the T5304 with existing SAP software, giving BASF increased speed and complete adaptability with the printing environment. The T5304 has excellent stability allowing plant operators to concentration attention on production.
Response
“Since the Printronix bar code printer was installed at BASF, very few of the operators on the plant floor ask for help to solve problems that often occurred with our previous printers.”
Ms. Qiu from BASF’s Logistics Department is satisfied with the quality of Printronix bar code printer and sincere service of Printronix agent

Acentra delivers scanning-to-go for big genealogical challenges

Your customer is a sweet lady in her 80s. She has over one million letters, documents, photos and other pieces of important genealogical data. She wants them all preserved and safeguarded digitally. Yet she won’t let the collection out of her sight for a minute. What do you do? If you’re Matt Bills, you bring your scanning operation to the lady and scan her materials on site. And you let her watch, if she wishes to do so.
Personal experience inspires a new businessFive years ago Matt Bills was newly married. He and his wife were moving into a home formerly occupied by his wife’s grandmother. Now suffering from Alzheimer’s, she had left a few years prior and rented out the house. All of the grandmother’s things were stored in a damp, dark room in the basement. As Bills sorted through the belongings, “I realized that under my feet was the history of this woman and her life. We found photos, documents, letters her husband had written from overseas during World War II … it was all such a mess. I thought, there has to be a better way.”
From that illuminating experience sprang the genesis for Acentra, Inc., a somewhat unusual service bureau operation headquartered in Provo, Utah. While Bills has other Acentra locations in Idaho, Arizona and the tri-state area of NY/NJ/CT, his Provo business finds itself heavily involved with genealogical preservation. Provo is home to Brigham Young University and — according to Association of Religion Data research — 98 percent of area residents are adherents to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints (LDS). These Mormons are very interested and involved in genealogy. “We worked with one group, the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers, who compiled almost 60,000 folders, each filled with 30 to 40 pages of historical data,” says Bills. “Each folder was for a specific person. Mormons don’t want history and stories to be forgotten, and we assist them in safeguarding their past for the future.” 

“… like the A-Team on a genealogical mission”As noted earlier, many Provo-area residents are loath to let these invaluable collections be sent to a service bureau. So Bills and his coworkers come to them. “We’re essentially a mobile digitizing unit,” he says. “It’s kind of like the A-Team taking on a genealogical mission. Our clients have books, records, photos, documents, great history. We’ve scanned 15th century land records, even pieces of stainless steel with text etched into them!”
Taking document scanners on a road trip is no easy task. Bills tried out scanners from several well-known manufacturers before deciding on models from Kodak, primarily KODAK i260, KODAK i1220 and i1320 Scanners. “Simply put, the scanners from Kodak aren’t wimps and can take the wear and tear, and travel and perform well,” Bills states. “Other companies’ scanners were too finicky or SCSI-based. We will do some modifications to our scanners to assure even more robust performance, and we even put some flame decals and other customization on them. We like to have fun doing what we do.” Acentra uses KODAK Capture Software, Lite along with the built-in imaging processing capabilities of their Kodak Scanners and finds the results “outstanding.”
Bills’ teams use trailers to transport the scanning operations, and build custom configurations and cases for their journeys and on-site projects.
“While we will work out of the trailers, we’ll also set up in a home or office, sometimes on a dining room table,” says Bills. “Whatever is most efficient and comfortable for our client. We’re flexible, and we target the scanners and related equipment to the needs of the job.”
Acentra’s Provo facility employs about 20 people most of the year, but the workforce swells to over 100 in the summer when the company embarks on an annual door-to-door campaign. “Provo is home to the largest LDS missionary training center, and we hire many young people who come back to the area to explain the advantages of digital preservation,” Bills says. “They talk up the service, and we generate a tremendous amount of business.”
Acentra converts almost anything analog to digitalAlong with hard-copy materials, Acentra also transitions videos, audio tapes, cassettes, slides, vinyl records, old 8 mm and 16 mm films and other analog media to digital formats, primarily DVD. Recently they’ve begun to offer newer formats, such as Blu-ray discs. Acentra has found that archiving service is increasingly popular. “People love having safe access to their collections on DVD, but they also want to know that they’re protected in case of a fire or mishap,” Bills notes. “We’ll burn a gold archival DVD and store it off-site, actually in an underground or Granite Mountain vault. It provides great peace of mind.”
To create additional selling opportunities, Acentra works with a sister company that offers scrapbook products, enlargements, and other photo specialty products. A customer can simply drag and drop digitized photos into predesigned templates, for example, and then have prints made with pictures and backgrounds as composite pages.

Law firm trials virtual filing

Fujitsu helps solicitors better their customer service

Michael Anvoner & Company is a niche UK based solicitors practice. It specialises in private client law and deals with wills, probates, estate planning and older client affairs. Established over 20 years ago and with an extensive client base, the solicitors of Michael Anvoner & Company have extensive experience in organising and managing the estates of their clients.
The type of law that Michael Anvoner & Company specialises in can often be a very complicated matter. It involves a lot of documentation and many different parties to deal with. As such, the lawyers have to be on top of every aspect of the case and client information. Due to the immense amount of paperwork involved, a problem often arises with quick and effective access to important documentation when time is of the essence.
As a result, Michael Anvoner, Principal Solicitor at Michael Anvoner & Company decided to implement an efficient method of customer service – virtual filing. By instantly scanning all of the documentation as soon as it is received, the solicitors are able to store the 'soft copy' onto the computer, where it is saved into a file which can be accessed quickly.
Speedy response to client queries is key
Because of the nature of the job, most of the duties of the solicitors at Michael Anvoner & Company involve ensuring the wishes in the wills of past relatives. As a result, clients are often distraught and require answers to their questions immediately. If their individual solicitor who knows the specifics of their case is not available at the time, it may be become problematic. The client might not have the time and patience for the individual to look for the correct file.
Michael Anvoner notes; "The clients who have queries on the phone are often at their most vulnerable. This is because we are dealing with the administration of the estate of a relative that has died. In this instance, the individual taking the call will have to sort through the files until they come across the right documentation."
Virtual filing provides the answer
Virtual filing is a term used to describe the record keeping method used at Michael Anvoner & Company. This is a form of filing where a virtual rendition of the clients' case files, correspondence and contacts are saved securely on a central server that can be accessed by all members of the legal team.
Anvoner adds; "If a person dealing with a particular client's case is not in the office at that time of the call, anyone else on the team can deal with it because they have a virtual file of the client's case. Every time we issue and receive a correspondence on a probate matter, it is saved both in the virtual file and in a physical one. Everything is saved in the virtual folder exactly the way it is in the physical one."
Lawyers consult the ScanSnap
To assist with the virtual filing, Michael Anvoner & Company looked to Fujitsu and their S510 ScanSnap range scanner. The ScanSnap is a 50 sheet ADF powered scanner that can scan documents up to 18 pages per minute at 150dpi and 36 images per minute if double sided. With the ScanSnap, the user has the choice to scan directly to Adobe PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint 2003 or standard image viewers.
Anvoner decided on the ScanSnap S510 because of its features and capabilities. He explains; "I read a review of it and it really looked ahead of its time." After using the ScanSnap, Anvoner was pleased with the results.
"What's wonderful about the ScanSnap S510 is its speed and the fact that it is so efficient that every time we get any correspondence from a party, we can scan it and save it in the appropriate folder. This way when answering a call, any person can access the virtual file and answer the client's query right away instead of physically getting up to search for the relevant file or taking a message and ringing back. It saves us a load of time and makes the client very happy because they can get instant answers from us" continues Anvoner.
Additional benefits
Aside from enabling a digital filing system, the ScanSnap also provides additional benefits to Michael Anvoner & Company. By digitalising client files, the practice is moving ever closer towards better customer service. This is saving both internal costs and the costs to the client. Anvoner notes; "Using the scanner is so simple that you don't need any technical or IT experience to operate it. The lawyers and paralegals are able to do it and at no cost to the client because we don't need any designated technical personnel to scan letters."
Anvoner is also impressed with how compact the device is – "it is a fabulous piece of kit that really helps us with our work. It has a very small footprint in that it sits comfortably on everybody's desk."
The speed and ease of use is a deciding factor in Anvoner's decision to invest in more ScanSnaps. He notes; "The ultimate aim is to have one scanner on everyone's desk, legal, secretarial and support staff."
Andrew Cowling, Senior Marketing Services Executive at Fujitsu Europe says of the use: "This is a great example of how technology can play a part in sensitive client situations. Businesses such as Michael Anvoner & Company tend to deal with a lot of paper and files, so I'm pleased that Fujitsu scanners are enabling them to do the best for their clients."

Knock Knock. Who’s There? Now Individuals Know When a Member of the Maryland Locksmith Association is at the Door.

The Challenge
Who among us hasn’t locked ourselves out of the house? And who hasn’t had just a twinge of
worry when calling a perfect stranger to unlock the door for us? Jonathan Mead, owner of Mead
Services and president of the Maryland Locksmith Association, understands that concern and is
doing something about it.
“This industry has always had problems with fly-by-night companies or companies operating as
an out-of-state representative,” Mead said. “I get calls every month from individuals to verify a
locksmith’s reputation or membership in our association.” As a result, Mead recently upgraded
the association’s photo ID cards to reduce the risk of duplication and to increase the professional
image of its members.
The Maryland Locksmith Association was created in 1952 to lend credibility to the profession. For
many years, it issued annual photo ID cards to its members out of laminated cardboard containing
photos taken with an instant camera. “They were easy to forge and not very professional-looking,”
said Mead. “As technology progressed, and the pricing of better equipment came down, it was
time to bring the association into a more modern and professional image.”

Solution Found
Today, each member of the Maryland Locksmith Association has a plastic HID proximity card with
the association’s logo, an individual’s photo and company name, and other pertinent information.
Proximity cards, which were chosen because of their flexibility and their ability to be programmed
to client systems, use contactless technology through an antenna embedded in the card. When
the card passes within range of a card reader, the embedded antenna communicates with a
receiving antenna in the reader, and the card is activated. HID cards use RFID technology enabling
users to upgrade to new technologies seamlessly and add new applications when they wish.
The cards are printed by Mead on a Fargo DTC300 Direct-to-Card Printer/Encoder. “We were
looking for a printer that was a plug-and-play system, easy to operate and load,” said Mead. “We
wanted a printer that would provide us with multi-colored cards and a clean, professional design.
We also wanted a machine that was not too bulky, because we pack it up in a suitcase and take
it to our meetings nine times a year, where new members are voted on and receive their first
badge.” Mead uses a Keyscan access control system and software that is compatible with HID
proximity cards. Together, the system provides the association with a workable database from
which to print professional ID cards.

Results
Members of the Maryland Locksmith Association use their ID cards to sign into association
meetings, to provide a professional image when dealing with clients, and to facilitate and
consolidate access to multiple client locations. In the past, locksmiths who worked for several
clients had to obtain access cards from each of the companies they served. “Each client had to
issue us a temporary badge or give us keys to get in and out,” said Mead. With the new HID
proximity ID cards, clients can program a locksmith’s badge information into their company’s
own system. “Instead of getting a card from each of 10 clients to gain access into their specific
buildings, I give them my information, and they put it into their database,” said Mead. “I only
need to carry one card.”
“Information from my card appears on a company’s security monitor, giving security personnel
the tracking they need,” said Mead. “At the same time, it gives us the professional image we
need.” Sometimes a PIN number is added to increase security, and sometimes companies limit
a locksmith’s access. “I have one client who activates my card only for the days I am going to be
there,” said Mead. “He wouldn’t have been able to do this with our old laminated cards.”
Most locksmiths are honest, hard-working men and women, but because no licensing is required
in 35 states, people are rightfully nervous about the small majority of unscrupulous individuals.
“We conduct background checks on all of our members,” said Mead. “If we find something
questionable, we deny membership. We go before the state legislature every winter to testify for
licensing, and these new ID cards help us to bolster our image and show pride in our industry.”
Mead also offers association members the opportunity to print ID cards for their smaller clients.
“If our members have a client with 10 to 15 people in an office and want access control but
don’t want to buy a printer, the client can send our association jpg photos, and we’ll make up
a template for a nominal cost,” Mead said. “Over the last two years, we have printed 200 nonmember
cards.”
“Homeland Security will continue to tighten down on who has access to what data, and what
data are maintained,” said Mead. Because several of the association’s members deal with
Homeland Security issues, the association may issue smart cards and add security laminates in
the future. “Some of our members want tamper-resistant cards,” he said. “We want to provide
them with what they need.” For now, Mead simply keeps the printer in a safe, along with the
laptop that holds the logos and pdf files.
While he ponders upcoming industry changes, Mead is working hard to ensure the
professionalism, integrity and training of locksmiths in the state of Maryland today. In addition
to being able to display logos and decals on their vehicles, members of the Maryland Locksmith
Association can now obtain state license plates to show their membership. But it is the new
ID cards that have been making the greatest impression with clients, whether they are large
corporations or simply individuals who have locked themselves out of their homes.
“Our members are proud to display their ID cards,” he said. “Not many associations have photo ID
cards. This makes us unique.”
