Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a method for printing personalized with logistic printing picture elements printed products according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen, wie zum Beispiel zum Drucken eines mit Adressen individualisierten Prospekts oder auch Werbeblatts, wird nach dem Stand der Technik so vorgegangen, dass in einer Druckmaschine mit mindestens einem Druckwerk in der gewünschten Auflagenhöhe statische bzw. immer gleiche Druckbilder für das Prospekt gedruckt werden, welches dann offline auf Basis von vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Adressen individualisiert wird. Die Adressen sind dynamische bzw. variable Logistikdruckbildelemente.For printing personalized with logistics printing elements printed products, such as for printing a personalized with addresses brochure or even advertising sheet, the procedure is that in a printing machine with at least one printing unit in the desired edition static or always the same print images for the prospectus are printed, which is then customized offline based on provided by the print client addresses. The addresses are dynamic or variable logistics print elements.

Bei dem aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahren zum Drucken solcher zum Bespiel mit Adressen individualisierter Druckerzeugnisse ergeben sich verschiedene Nachteile. So ist das nach dem Stand der Technik offline durchgeführte Individualisieren der Druckerzeugnisse mit den Logistikdruckbildelementen, insbesondere mit den Adressen, aufwendig und teuer. Weiterhin können die vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Daten für die variablen Logistikdruckbildelemente veraltet sein. Im Falle von als Logistikdruckbildelementen gedruckter Adressen würde dies dann bedeuten, dass ein mit Adressen individualisiertes Druckerzeugnis, zum Beispiel das Prospekt, an eine veraltete Adresse verschickt wird.In the known from the prior art method for printing such for example with addresses of individualized printed products, there are various disadvantages. Thus, the customizing of the printed products with the logistic printing picture elements, in particular with the addresses, carried out offline according to the state of the art is complicated and expensive. Furthermore, the data provided by the print job for the variable logistics print pixels may be out of date. In the case of addresses printed as logistic print pixels, this would then mean that a print personalized with addresses, for example the brochure, is sent to an outdated address.

Dokument DE 19512501 offenbart ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines personalisierten Druckproduktes, bei dem die statischen und die dynamischen Druckbildelemente inline gedruckt werden.document DE 19512501 discloses a method of making a personalized printed product in which the static and dynamic printed image elements are printed inline.

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der hier vorliegenden Erfindung das Problem zugrunde, ein neuartiges Verfahren zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen zu schaffen.On this basis, the present invention is based on the problem to provide a novel method for printing personalized with logistic printing picture elements printed products.

Dieses Problem wird durch ein Verfahren zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen gemäß Patentanspruch 1 gelöst. Erfindungsgemäß werden Daten des oder jeden insbesondere statischen Druckbilds mit Daten des oder jedes dynamischen Logistikdruckbildelements derart kombiniert, dass das oder jedes Druckbild und das oder jedes Logistikdruckbildelement inline gedruckt werden. Die Daten des oder jedes Logistikdruckbildelements werden hierzu erfindungsgemäß über einen Datenabgleich zwischen einer von einem Druckauftrageber bereitgestellten Datenbank und einer von einem Logistikprovider bereitgestellten Datenbank vor dem Drucken der mit dem oder jedem Logistikdruckbildelement individualisierten Druckerzeugnisse automatisch aktualisiert.This problem is solved by a method for printing printed matter customized with logistic printing elements according to claim 1. According to the invention, data of the or each particular static print image is combined with data of the or each dynamic logistics print image element such that the or each print image and the or each logistics print image element are printed inline. According to the invention, the data of the or each logistics print image element are automatically updated by means of a data comparison between a database provided by a print job server and a database provided by a logistics provider prior to the printing of the print products individualized with the or each logistics print picture element.

Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und der nachfolgenden Beschreibung.Preferred embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims and the description below.

Bevor nachfolgend unter Bezugnahme auf Fig. 2 das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen im Detail beschrieben wird, soll vorab unter Bezugnahme auf Fig. 1 das aus dem Stand der Technik bekannte Verfahren beschrieben werden.Before referring to below Fig. 2 the method according to the invention for printing printed products individualized with logistic printing picture elements will be described in detail with reference to FIG Fig. 1 the method known from the prior art will be described.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine schematisierte Darstellung zur Verdeutlichung des aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahrens zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen. So visualisiert Fig. 1 mit dem Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation to illustrate the known from the prior art method for printing personalized with logistics print pixels print products. So visualized Fig. 1 with the

Block 10 einen Druckauftraggeber, der Daten bzw. Datenbanken bereitstellt, die zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen erforderlich sind. Bei diesen gemäß Blocks 10 bereitgestellten Daten handelt es sich einerseits um Daten 11 zum Beispiel über den Inhalt mindestens eines statischen Druckbildes des herzustellenden Druckerzeugnisses sowie um Daten 12 über dynamische Logistikdruckbildelemente, im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel über Adressen, mithilfe derer das oder jedes statische Druckbilde des Druckerzeugnisses individualisiert werden sollen.Block 10, a print job, which provides data or databases that are required for printing personalized with logistic printing elements print products. These data provided in accordance with blocks 10 are, on the one hand, data 11, for example, the content of at least one static print image of the printed product to be produced and data 12 about dynamic logistics print image elements, in the exemplary embodiment shown, addresses which are used to individualize the or each static print image of the printed product should be.

Nach dem Stand der Technik wird gemäß Fig. 1 so vorgegangen, dass die Daten 11 über das oder jedes statische Druckbild des zu druckenden Druckererzeugnisses entweder direkt bzw. unmittelbar oder unter Zwischenschaltung einer mit dem Block 13 visualisierten Werbeagentur an eine mit dem Block 14 visualisierte Druckerei übermittelt werden. Die durch den Block 13 visualisierte Werbeagentur kann zum Beispiel aus den vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Daten 11 über das oder jedes statische Druckbild des zu druckenden Druckerzeugnisses ein spezielles Layout erzeugen. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, dass dieses Layout der durch den Block 14 visualisierten Druckerei unmittelbar vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellt wird.According to the prior art is according to Fig. 1 The procedure is such that the data 11 are transmitted via the or each static printed image of the printed product to be printed either directly or directly or with the interposition of an advertising agency visualized with the block 13 to a printer visualized with the block 14. The advertising agency visualized by the block 13 can, for example, generate a special layout from the data 11 provided by the printing client via the or each static printed image of the printed product to be printed. However, it is also possible that this layout of the visualized by the block 14 printing company is provided directly from the print job.

Die Daten 11 über das oder jedes statische Druckbild des zu druckenden Druckerzeugnisses werden in einer Druckvorstufe in von einer in Fig. 1 schematisiert dargestellten Druckmaschine 15 verarbeitbare Daten gewandelt. Die Druckmaschine 15 verfügt üblicherweise über mehrere hintereinander angeordnete Druckwerke. Wird zum Beispiel das herzustellende Druckerzeugnis durch einen autotypischen Zusammendruck erzeugt, so umfasst die Druckmaschine vorzugsweise mindestens vier Druckwerke, wobei für jede Prozessfarbe des autotypischen Zusammendrucks, nämlich für die Prozessfarben Cyan, Magenta, Gelb und Schwarz, jeweils ein Druckwerk vorhanden ist. Nach dem Stand der Technik werden die zu druckenden Druckerzeugnisse in der Druckmaschine 15 mit den immer gleichen und damit statischen Druckbildern bedruckt, und die in der Druckmaschine 15 gedruckten, noch statischen bzw. immer gleichen Druckerzeugnisse werden dann offline mithilfe der Daten 12 über die dynamischen Logistikdruckbildelemente individualisiert.The data 11 on the or each static printed image of the printed product to be printed in a prepress in from a in Fig. 1 schematized illustrated printing machine 15 processed data processed. The printing machine 15 usually has a plurality of successively arranged printing units. If, for example, the printed product to be produced is produced by an autotypic compression, the printing press preferably comprises at least four printing units, one printing unit being present for each process color of the autotypic combined print, namely for the process colors cyan, magenta, yellow and black. According to the state of the art, the printed products to be printed in the printing machine 15 are printed with the same and thus static printed images, and printed in the printing machine 15, still static or always the same printed products are then offline using the data 12 on the dynamic logistics print pixels individualized.

So zeigt Fig. 1, dass die in der Druckmaschine 15 gedruckten, immer gleichen und damit statischen Druckerzeugnisse offline von der Druckmaschine 15 in einem Block 16 auf Basis der vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Daten 12 mit den Logistikdruckbildelementen, nämlich mit Adressen, individualisiert werden. Dies kann zum Beispiel dadurch geschehen, dass auf Basis der Daten 12 Adressaufkleber gedruckt werden, die dann auf die in der Druckmaschine 15 erzeugten, noch statischen Druckerzeugnisse zur Individualisierung derselben aufgeklebt werden.So shows Fig. 1 in that the printed and always static printed products printed in the printing press 15 are individualized offline by the printing press 15 in a block 16 on the basis of the data 12 provided by the print job generator with the logistics print picture elements, namely with addresses. This can be done, for example, by printing address labels on the basis of the data 12, which are then adhered to the still static printed products produced in the printing press 15 for individualization thereof.

Die so individualisierten Druckerzeugnisse werden dann im Sinne des Pfeils 17 einem durch den Block 18 visualisierten Logistikprovider, zum Beispiel einem Postunternehmen, zugeführt, welches dann die im Block 16 individualisierten Druckerzeugnisse an durch den Block 19 visualisierten Adressaten bzw. Kunden des Druckauftraggebers versendet. Dabei ist es zum Beispiel nach dem Stand der Technik üblich, dass der durch den Block 18 visualisierte Logistikprovider die zum Beispiel durch die Adressaufkleber individualisierten Druckerzeugnisse noch mit Logistikcodes ausstattet. Hierzu werden vom Logistikprovider die auf die Druckerzeugnisse zur Individualisierung derselben aufgebrachten Adressen gescannt und aus diesen Adressen wird dann vom Logistikprovider ein Logistikcode erzeugt, der dann zusätzlich auf das individualisierte Druckerzeugnis aufgebracht wird. Mit solchen Logistikcodes ist es möglich, den Auslieferungsstatus versendeter Druckerzeugnisse nachzuvollziehen. Das Versenden der mit mindestens einem Logistikdruckbildelement visualisierten Druckerzeugnisse an die Adressaten bzw. Kunden des Druckauftraggebers ist in Fig. 1 durch Pfeile 20 visualisiert.The individualized printed products are then fed in the direction of the arrow 17 to a logistics provider visualized by the block 18, for example a postal company, which then sends the printed products individualized in block 16 to addressees or customers of the print client who are visualized by the block 19. It is customary, for example, according to the state of the art that the logistics provider visualized by the block 18 also equips the printed products individualized by the address stickers, for example, with logistics codes. For this purpose, the logistic provider will scan the addresses applied to the printed products for the individualization of the same, and from these addresses a logistics code will be generated by the logistics provider, which is then additionally applied to the individualized printed product. With such logistics codes, it is possible to understand the delivery status of sent printed products. The sending of the print products visualized with at least one logistics print image element to the addressee or customer of the print job creator is in Fig. 1 visualized by arrows 20.

Aus dem oben beschriebenen, aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahren zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen erschließen sich unmittelbar die Stand der Technik anhaftenden Nachteile. Wie bereits erwähnt, werden nach dem Stand der Technik zuerst in der Druckmaschine 15 auf Basis der Daten 11 über das oder jedes statische Druckbild immer gleiche und damit statische Druckerzeugnisse gedruckt, die dann offline auf Basis der vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellter Daten 12 über Logistikdruckbildelemente, insbesondere Adressen, in einem getrennten Arbeitsschritt individualisiert werden müssen. Dies ist aufwendig und teuer. Darüber hinaus ist es nach dem Stand der Technik erforderlich, dass dann, wenn der Versendestatus der so individualisierten Druckererzeugnisse nachvollzogen werden soll, vom Logistikprovider separate Logistikcodes erzeugt und auf die Druckerzeugnisse aufgebracht werden müssen. Auch dies ist aufwendig und teuer. Ein weiterer Nachteil des aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahrens liegt darin, dass ein durch den Pfeil 21 visualisierter Datenaustausch zwischen dem Druckauftraggeber und den Adressaten der Druckerzeugnisse bzw. den Kunden des Druckauftraggebers längere Zeit zurückliegen kann, so dass die vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Daten 12 für einige der Adressanten veraltet sein können. Insofern ist es nach dem Stand der Technik nicht auszuschließen, dass im Block 16 die noch statischen und damit immer gleichen Druckerzeugnisse mit veralteten Logistikdruckbildelementen, insbesondere mit veralteten Adressen, individualisiert werden.From the above-described, known from the prior art method for printing personalized with logistics printing elements print products directly accessible to the prior art adhering disadvantages. As already mentioned, according to the state of the art, the same and thus static printed products are always first printed in the printing press 15 based on the data 11 via the or each static printed image, which is then offline on the basis of the data 12 provided by the printing client via logistic printing picture elements, in particular addresses Individualized in a separate step Need to become. This is complicated and expensive. In addition, it is necessary in the prior art that if the shipping status of the so individualized printed products to be reproduced, must be generated by the logistics provider separate logistics codes and applied to the printed matter. Again, this is complicated and expensive. Another disadvantage of the known from the prior art method is that a visualized by the arrow 21 data exchange between the print job and the addressees of the printed products or the customer of the print job can be a long time ago, so that provided by the print job data 12 for some of the addressees may be outdated. In this respect, according to the state of the art, it can not be ruled out that in block 16 the still static and therefore always the same printed products with outdated logistic printing picture elements, in particular with obsolete addresses, are individualized.

Fig. 2 zeigt eine schematisierte Darstellung zur Verdeutlichung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen. So visualisiert Fig. 2 mit dem Block 22 einen Druckauftraggeber, wobei vom Druckauftraggeber wiederum Daten 23 über das oder jedes statische Druckbild des zu erzeugenden Druckerzeugnisses und Daten 24 über dynamische Logistikdruckbildelemente, nämlich über Adressen der Kunden des Druckauftraggebers, bereitgestellt werden. Es liegt nun im Sinne der hier vorliegenden Erfindung, die Daten 23 des oder jeden statischen Druckbilds mit den Daten 24 des oder jeden dynamischen Druckbildelements derart miteinander zu kombinieren, dass das oder jedes statische Druckbild und das oder jedes dynamische Logistikdruckbildelement inline gedruckt werden. Hierzu wird im Detail wie folgt vorgegangen. Fig. 2 shows a schematic representation to illustrate the method according to the invention for printing personalized with logistic printing picture elements printed products. So visualized Fig. 2 with the block 22 a print job, wherein the print job generator again data 23 on the or each static print image of the printed product to be generated and data 24 via dynamic logistics print pixels, namely on addresses of customers of the print client, are provided. It is now within the scope of the present invention to combine the data 23 of the or each static print image with the data 24 of the or each dynamic print pixel such that the or each static print image and the or each dynamic logistics print pixel are printed inline. This is done in detail as follows.

Nach einem ersten Aspekt der hier vorliegenden Erfindung werden die vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Daten 24 über die dynamischen Logistikdruckbildelemente, nämlich über die Adressen der Kunden des Druckauftraggebers, mit von dem Logistikprovider, der in Fig. 2 durch den Block 25 dargestellt ist, bereitgestellten Adressen verglichen. So tauschen nämlich die durch den Block 26 in Fig. 2 visualisierten Adressaten bzw. Kunden des Druckauftraggebers im Sinne des Pfeils 27 nicht nur mit dem Druckauftraggeber Daten aus, sondern im Sinne des Pfeils 28 auch mit dem Logistikprovider. Der Datenaustausch mit dem Logistikprovider im Sinne des Pfeils 28 erfolgt dabei in der Regel in kürzeren Intervallen als der Datenaustausch mit dem Druckauftraggeber im Sinne des Pfeils 27, was zum Beispiel dadurch begründet ist, dass der Logistikprovider zum Beispiel über Nachsendeaufträge über aktuellere Adresse verfügt als der Druckauftraggeber.According to a first aspect of the present invention, the data 24 provided by the printing client are transmitted via the dynamic logistic printing picture elements, namely via the addresses of the customers of the print job sender, with the logistic provider who in Fig. 2 represented by block 25, provided addresses. So swap the through the block 26 in Fig. 2 visualized addressee or customer of the print client in the sense of arrow 27 not only with the print job data, but in the sense of arrow 28 also with the logistics provider. The data exchange with the logistics provider in the sense of arrow 28 is usually done at shorter intervals than the data exchange with the print job in the direction of arrow 27, which is, for example, due to the fact that the logistics provider has, for example via forwarding orders on more recent address than the print buyers.

Demnach werden als dynamische Logistikdruckbildelementen zu druckende, zur Individualisierung der Druckerzeugnisse verwendete Adressen über einen Datenabgleich zwischen einer vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Adressdatenbank und einer vom Logistikprovider bereitgestellten Adressdatenbank vor dem Drucken automatisch abgeglichen und dadurch aktualisiert. Diese aktualisierten Adressdaten werden im Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 2 einer durch den Block 30 visualisierten Werbeagentur zur Verfügung gestellt, die ihrerseits diese Daten 29 einer durch den Block 31 visualisierten Druckerei zur Verfügung stellt. Es sei darauf hingewiesen, dass die aktualisierten Adressdaten 29 auch unmittelbar der durch den Block 31 visualisierten Druckerei zur Verfügung gestellt werden können.Accordingly, addresses which are to be printed and used for the individualization of the printed products are automatically adjusted and updated by means of a data comparison between an address database provided by the print client and an address database provided by the logistics provider prior to printing. These updated address data are in the embodiment of Fig. 2 provided by the block 30 visualized advertising agency, which in turn provides this data 29 a visualized by the block 31 printing company. It should be noted that the updated address data 29 can also be made available directly to the printer visualized by the block 31.

Weiterhin werden auf Basis des Vergleichs zwischen der vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Adressdatenbank und der vom Logistikprovider bereitgestellten Adressdatenbank automatisch Daten 32 über aktualisierte Logistikcodes generiert, die im Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 2 ebenfalls unter Zwischenschaltung der durch den Block 30 visualisierten Werbeagentur der durch den Block 31 visualisierten Druckerei zur Verfügung gestellt werden.Furthermore, on the basis of the comparison between the address database provided by the print client and the address database provided by the logistics provider, data 32 about updated logistics codes is automatically generated, which in the exemplary embodiment of FIG Fig. 2 are also provided with the interposition of the visualized by the block 30 advertising agency of visualized by the block 31 printing company.

Nach einem weiteren Aspekt der hier vorliegenden Erfindung werden nun in einer Druckvorstufe die Daten 23 des oder jedes statischen Druckbilds mit den Daten 29, 32 der dynamischen Logistikdruckbildelemente, nämlich mit den Daten 29 über aktualisierte Adressen und den Daten 32 über aktualisierte Logistikcodes, derart miteinander kombiniert, dass das oder jedes statische Druckbild und das oder jedes dynamische Druckbildelement inline, also in einem Workflow, gedruckt werden können.According to a further aspect of the present invention, the data 23 of the or each static print image are combined with the data 29, 32 of the dynamic logistics print image elements, namely with the data 29 via updated addresses and the data 32 via updated logistics codes, in a prepress stage in that the or each static print image and the or each dynamic print image element can be printed inline, ie in a workflow.

So zeigt Fig. 2 wiederum stark schematisiert eine Druckmaschine 33, wobei diese Druckmaschine 33 im Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 2 zum Inline-Drucken des oder jedes statischen Druckbilds und des oder jedes dynamischen Logistikdruckbildelements einerseits über mindestens ein Druckwerk zum Drucken des oder jedes statischen Druckbilds und mindestens eine Druckeinrichtung zum Drucken des oder jedes dynamischen Druckbildelements aufweist, wobei die oder jede Druckeinrichtung inline zu dem oder jedem Druckwerk angeordnet ist.So shows Fig. 2 in turn, very schematically a printing machine 33, said printing machine 33 in the embodiment of the Fig. 2 for inline printing of or each static print image and the or each dynamic logistics print image element on the one hand via at least one printing unit for printing the or each static printed image and at least one printing device for printing the or each dynamic printed image element, wherein the or each printing device is arranged inline to the or each printing unit.

Bei den Druckwerken zum Drucken des oder jedes statischen Druckbilds handelt es sich vorzugsweise um Offsetdruck-Druckwerke oder Tiefdruck-Druckwerke oder Flexodruck-Druckwerke, wobei für jede zu druckende Druckfarbe vorzugsweise ein derartiges Druckwerk vorhanden ist.The printing units for printing the or each static printed image are preferably offset printing units or gravure printing units or flexographic printing units, wherein such a printing unit is preferably present for each printing ink to be printed.

Bei den Druckeinrichtungen zum Drucken des oder jedes dynamischen bzw. veränderlichen Logistikdruckbildelements werden vorzugsweise Tintenstrahl- bzw. InkJet-Druckeinrichtungen verwendet. Anstelle solcher Tintenstrahl-Druckeinrichtungen können auch dynamische Druckeinrichtungen zum Einsatz kommen, die auf dem Prinzip der Elektrofotografie, Magnetografie, Elektrokoagulation oder auch lonografie beruhen.The printing devices for printing the or each dynamic logistics print image element preferably use ink jet or ink jet printing devices. Instead of such inkjet printing devices and dynamic printing devices can be used, which are based on the principle of electrophotography, magnetography, electrocoagulation or even ionography.

Das oder jedes Druckwerke zum Drucken des oder jedes statischen Druckbilds sowie die oder jede Druckeinrichtung zum Drucken des oder jedes dynamischen Logistikdruckbildelements sind also, wie bereits erwähnt, inline zu einer Druckmaschine 33 gekoppelt, sodass mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierte Druckerzeugnisse in einem Workflow gedruckt werden können.The or each printing unit for printing the or each static printed image as well as the or each printing device for printing the or each dynamic logistics print image element are, as already mentioned, coupled inline to a printing machine 33 so that individualized printed matter can be printed in a workflow with logistics print image elements.

Im Sinne der hier vorliegenden Erfindung werden demnach in der Druckmaschine 33 in einem Workflow und damit inline mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierte Druckerzeugnisse gedruckt, sodass auf die nach dem Stand der Technik erforderliche Offline-Individualisierung verzichtet werden kann. Hierdurch liegen demnach im Block 34 bereits fertig individualisierte Druckerzeugnisse vor. Diese werden dann lediglich im Sinne des Pfeils 36 dem durch den Block 25 visualisierten Logistikprovider zur Verfügung gestellt, der die mit aktualisierten Logistikdruckbildelementen fertig individualisierten Druckerzeugnisse dann lediglich im Sinne der Pfeile 35 an die durch den Block 26 visualisierten Kunden des Druckauftraggebers übermittelt.For the purposes of the present invention, individualized printed products are therefore printed in the printing press 33 in a workflow and thus inline with logistics print image elements, so that the offline individualization required according to the prior art can be dispensed with. As a result, there are already finished individualized printed products in block 34. These are then provided only in the sense of arrow 36 to the visualized by the block 25 logistics provider available, which then finished personalized with updated logistics printing elements individualized printed products only in the sense of arrows 35 to the visualized by the block 26 customers of the print job.

Zusammenfassend sei angemerkt, dass das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zum Drucken von mit Logistikdruckbildelementen individualisierten Druckerzeugnissen im Wesentlichen durch zwei Hauptgesichtspunkte gekennzeichnet ist: Nach einem ersten Hauptgesichtspunkt werden die statischen Druckbilder sowie die dynamischen Logistikdruckbildelemente inline, das heißt in einem Workflow, gedruckt. Nach einem zweiten Hauptgesichtspunkt werden vor dem Drucken des Druckerzeugnisses die dynamischen Logistikdruckbildelemente automatisch aktualisiert, indem ein Abgleich zwischen Datenbanken vorgenommen wird.In summary, it should be noted that the method according to the invention for printing printed products personalized with logistics print image elements is essentially characterized by two main aspects: According to a first main point of view, the static print images as well as the dynamic logistics print image elements are printed inline, that is to say in a workflow. In a second major aspect, prior to printing the print product, the dynamic logistics print pixels are automatically updated by comparing databases.

Hierbei handelt es sich insbesondere um einen Abgleich zwischen einer vom Druckauftraggeber bereitgestellten Adressdatenbank und einer vom Logistikprovider bereitgestellten Adressdatenbank. Auf Basis dieses Datenabgleichs können aktuelle Logistikcodes generiert werden, die zusammen mit den aktualisierten Adressen inline zu den statischen Druckbildern gedruckt werden. Wenn, wie im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 2, diese beiden Hauptgesichtspunkte miteinander kombiniert werden, so ergibt sich die besonders bevorzugte Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens.This is in particular a comparison between an address database provided by the print client and an address database provided by the logistics provider. Based on this data comparison, current logistics codes can be generated, which are printed together with the updated addresses inline to the static print images. If, as in the embodiment shown the Fig. 2 , These two main aspects are combined, the result is the most preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention.
