SATO’s Integrated Barcode Validator for the CL4NX Plus printer allows users to automatically scan and validate all 1D and 2D barcode symbologies on their printed label. It supports all resident printer barcodes or those imaged as a graphic, such as printing a PDF via Windows-based printer driver.

The Integrated Barcode Validator provides integrated operation with the CL4NX Plus printer which can be configured to either read and/or compare barcode data. Easy to use and implement with no additional software required, as operational settings are selectable directly from the LCD menu.

The Integrated Barcode Validator has an overstrike feature to retract and void the label if the barcode data does not scan properly, preventing poor quality labels from being applied and used in the supply chain. Upon error, it can be configured to automatically reprint the label or stop printer operation, thus reducing label waste. For customers who are under compliance mandates, the Integrated Barcode Validator has a built-in logging feature which provides an audit of the labels printed for quality checking. The log file can also be uploaded to a host system for archiving purposes. The SATO Barcode Validator solution enhances efficiency of your label printing and provides quality assurance that can ultimately lower your labeling costs.
