step 01. Check the Printing Equipment compatibility.
The secure QR code technology is compatible with majority of printing technologies that provide industrial level of quality and stability with min 600dpi resolution. The following technologies have been extensively tested:
Flexo [2400, 2540, 4000 dpi]
Offset [2400, 2540]
Rotogravure [500+ l/cm]
Digital presses [600, 812.8, 1200 dpi]
Technologies as laser engraving, inkjet are subject to evaluation. Thermal printers or home inkjet printers do not provide sufficient quality.
To achieve desired security and to enable copy-detection and authentication function each Substrate + Equipment needs to be Calibrated. Download the Proof-Sheeton Printer Portal. Use the QA Device to scan the calibration sheet. System will automaticaly decide for the best paramteres for your Substrate + Equipment combination.
step 04. Generate codes and prepare the printing data
Differently than usual QR codes, Secure QR codes need to be integrated into the artwork by the Printing Partner just before printing. For each BRAND/SKU, generate assigned Work Order with secure QR code and download the data through your Printer Portal. Replace FPO by Secure QR code in the artwork through your pre-press process. DO NOT DOWNSAMPLE / DO NOT HALFTONE.
