Getting Started
Unique Identifier in the Data File
Using the standard MCS Printer data file, place the unique identifier (index number) in a
separate field in your data. Once the field is identified, the field number must be updated
in the setup file.
Note: The data mask in the settings.ini file must match the number of digits (e.g. 7 digits
equals #######).
Note: You must use leading zeros.
Six or seven digits are recommended. The number of digits must be consistent within a
file. If you have one million or more, 7 digits is necessary.
Do not use the same unique identifier within a job, even if you split the file into multiple
segments.
The Data Mask is located under the [System] group in the Settings.ini file. See
“Configuration Files” on page 7-1 for a detailed explanation of this file.
IR Track
The IR Track System fits into your current continuous print operations or continuous
form bindery line. The system can be used to apply invisible automation marks or as a
method to add security information to printed documents. It can even be used to add sort
control marks to increase productivity. No database is necessary for the invisible print to
be appended.
The system reads preprinted unique identifiers and uses that information to print
invisible unique identifiers. Once printed, invisible identifiers can be read by
