The ODV-2D is only available in a 4-inch version, will there be a 6-inch and/or 8-inch model in the future?
The ODV-2D is only available in a 4-inch version at this time. There are no immediate plans for a wider version.
Is the ODV-1D option going to be discontinued?
The ODV-1D will continue to be available in 4-inch, 6-inch, and 8-inch versions.
Are ODV-2D units available for order?
The ODV-2D is in full production. Units can be ordered through our Regional sales channels. There has been a great deal of interest and demand in 2D validation.
What is the price positioning of the ODV-2D?
The list price for the ODV-2D option is $2,195. The ODV-2D option will be added to the T8000 price list as an available option.
Can the ODV-2D be sold as a kit that can be added to an existing installation?
No, the ODV-2D must be purchased at the same time as the original sale of the T8000 due to precise production requirements.
Are all the same T8000 Field Kit Options available with the ODV-2D?
All of the same T8000 4-inch Field kit Options are available at launch except for a cutter. A newly designed cutter option will be required to be functional with the ODV-2D option. The website will be updated if this option becomes available.
Why are installation and service costs for the ODV-2D higher than the ODV-1D?
The ODV-2D option is a state-of-the-art image capture technology that is more versatile and complex than the ODV-1D. As a result, more time is allowed for both installing and servicing the ODV-2D to precisely calibrate the printer to match high levels of performance and production.
Can the ODV-2D work with 1D and 2D barcodes?
Yes, the ODV-2D can handle both 1D and 2D barcodes in any orientation, including picket fence and ladder barcodes. Some 2D barcodes may not be available at launch. Please refer to the ODV-2D Printer Specifications on the Printronix Auto ID website.
What barcode formats can be detected?
The ODV-2D can handle the full suite of 1D barcodes (Code 39 CODABAR Interleafed 2 of 5 Code 93 Code 128 UPC/EAN plus add-ons PDF417 (Limited) For 2D barcodes, the printer is currently able to handle DataMatrix and PDF417. QR codes, PDF417 Micro, PDF417 Truncated barcodes are under development and test. We will let you know as soon as they are available. Please check the Specification section on the Printronix Auto ID website for ODV-2D for the latest status
Are the barcode dimension requirements for ODV-2D differ from ODV-1D?
Yes, the minimum X-Dimension supported for ODV-2D is 10 mils. As ODV-1D usually requires a shorter focal difference, and the ODV-1D specification supports down to 6.6 mils.
Is the ODV-2D available through Distribution sales channels?
To more closely monitor the initial installation of the ODV-2D technology, units will only be available through our Value Added Resellers.
Will the ODV-2D be installed and supported the same as the ODV-1D?
No, the ODV-2D requires installation by a Certified Technician. We are offering a Certification Program that provides training and testing for VAR partners on the installation, service, and first line of support for the ODV-2D. Third party Certified installation and support for the ODV-2D is available for those VAR partners that have not obtained certification.
Does the ODV-2D work at the same throughput speeds as the T8000?
No, the throughput speeds of the ODV-2D are highly dependent upon the setup and validation procedure options that are selected by the operator. In addition, label formats that have numerous barcodes with large data validation requirements will impact throughput speeds. However, the simplicity of setup, and operation of the ODV-2D provides significant advantages in the majority of applications. As a result, throughput speeds have not been an issue with initial installations. The Printronix Auto ID VAR partner is capable of evaluating your application to ensure that throughput speeds are optimized to meet your requirements.
Does the ODV-2D meet the ISO verifier standards?
The ISO standards were developed when the only equipment available was stand-alone instruments that scan static label images. There was no consideration for in-line real-time barcode verification. To meet production speeds and space requirements, the ODV-2D design is such that it does not strictly meet the ISO light source requirements, and the ODV-2D product specification allows for a slightly wider tolerance on grading accuracy. However, each unit is tested in production against GS1 Conformance Cards to assure the unit will grade barcodes reliably.
So, if the ODV-2D has a different design from a verifier, but has similar grading capabilities, is it considered a Validator or Verifier?
“Verifier” and “validator” are terms that are often used interchangeably in the industry, but ISO does have specific standards (see ISO 15426-1/2) to define a verifier. To avoid confusion over the slight performance differences against the ISO standard, we refer to the ODV-2D as a validator.
Is the WiFi 802.11ac functionality introduced with the ODV-2D available with other Printronix Auto ID printers?
Yes, the many advantages of 802.11ac functionality are available in the T8000 and T6000 models of printers. Typical WiFi speeds are expected to improve 3x to 5x over older WiFi versions.
