Consecutive Numbering | Bar Code Numbering | MOD Numbering


There are several option for numbering labels. They may be numbered with a standard consecutive number or they can be numbered by using a bar code system, which can be a consecutive or a static number. MOD numbering can be used for added security.

Consecutive Numbering

  • Consecutive numbering changes sequentially from one label to the next.
  • It can be used as a control feature to provide a distinct identity to each document.
  • The number can be printed in most any location on the label. For numbering in more than one location, consult your supplier.
  • Numbering is available on most any size, shape or type of label.
  • The size of the number can range from 1/16" to 5 1/2", depending on manufacturer's capabilities.
  • Alphabetic characters can also be used in the number.
  • Numbering can be added on almost any type of facestock.

 

 
Bar Code Numbering

  • Bar code numbering is used on many types of applications to code and decode information automatically.
  • It consists of bars and spaces of various sizes.
  • The bar codes can be static (the same number on each label) or consecutive (sequential from label to label).
  • The scanned information is received without the input errors that can occur with the use of traditional methods of entering data. Bar coding is a much more reliable, faster, and efficient method of gathering information.

MOD Numbering

MOD (Modulus) or check digit numbering involves selecting a numbering method (MICR, Gothic, OCR, or Bar Code) to be used on documents for which an additional digit will be printed to the right of a base sequential number enabling the document owner to verify and control some aspect of the document, it's contents, or the intended end-user of the document.
