Examples of Serialization
In a simple serialization, a sequence runs through its full range of numbers and/or letters (i.e.,
0 to 9, or A to Z), one number/letter for each label. Starting with the Start Value, the Increment
value is added to the previous number to produce the next sequence number, until it reaches
the End Value.
Example: Simple serialization 1:
Start Value: 1
Increment: 1
End Value: 10
Produces: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Sequencing progresses only until the End Value is reached, it cannot go over the End Value.
When the Increment Value is larger than 1, it may produce a sequence that does not print the
End Value.
Example: Simple serialization 2:
Start Value: 1
Increment: 2
End Value: 10
Produces: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9
In the above example, the increment value of 2 is added to each previous sequence number.
Therefore, 1 + 2 = 3, 3 + 2 = 5, 5 + 2 = 7, 7 + 2 = 9. It cannot add 2 to sequence number 9
because that would produce sequence number 11, which is higher than the end value of 10.
Note: The BMP21 printer can only process simple serializations, as in the above
two examples. The BMP21-PLUS printer can also process serializations using
single or multiple letters.
