Wizard Lets Users Link Printer Controller with Database

FoxJet unveils a new software wizard for its Marksman Matrix controller that allows users to link to their databases, reducing time for message creation and for human error.

At its PACK EXPO Connects demo, FoxJet launched a wizard for its Marksman Matrix™ high-resolution ink-jet printer controller that allows users to link their existing ERP and product information databases directly to the controller without the need for IT help, to speed message creation and eliminate coding errors.  

“We had some capability in the past to link to databases, but the wizard makes it much easier,” shares Michael Sawyer, Global Distribution Sales Manager for FoxJet. “The wizard walks you through with a series of questions. It’s anywhere from a two- to three-minute process from the time you start with the database until you link with our system and get it ready for print.

“It’s a very quick process that can save a lot of time, and it obviously doesn’t require a lot of IT resources. Anyone familiar with a computer can do this very quickly.”  

In the past, Sawyer explains, either FoxJet or its distributors would work with customers to set up their messages and make sure their databases were linked properly. With the wizard, a production supervisor or line supervisor, for example, can now perform this task on their own.
