Abstract
A method for positioning a print integrity image capture device comprises the steps of creating electronic document data; adding print integrity markings to the electronic document data; sending the electronic document data to a raster image processor; determining the location of integrity markings for a tangible print of electronic document data; automatically adjusting an image capture device location based on integrity marking location information; providing necessary scheduling information to a feeding device and/or a sorting device; printing a tangible print of electronic document data; scanning a tangible print of electronic document data based on a determined image capture location; analyzing an image to determine which integrity marking is located on the tangible print of electronic document data; relaying an integrity marking number to a production management algorithm; determining whether all tangible prints of electronic document data have been printed; and determining whether all documents have been printed.
