Abstract
This disclosure sets forth a verifier for verifying the quality of print such as bar codes in combination with a printer wherein the printer can be controlled to provide proper printing functions for printing in response to the verifier input. The printer upon receipt of a particular report from the verifier can stop the printing such as bar code printing as to a bad label, overstrike a bad label, or reprint the label. Further to this extent, the printer can be controlled by operator intervention on the control panel or by automatic input through the controller of the printer to provide for the respective necessary and correct print or bar codes being printed.
