Abstract

Un ordinateur est conçu pour faire office de moyens d’identification de support d’enregistrement (14), de moyens de production de données d’impression (15) et de moyens de commande d’impression (16). Les moyens d’identification de support d’enregistrement (14) identifient un support d’enregistrement comme un support d’enregistrement spécifique sur la base d’une détermination indiquant si des informations prédéterminées sont enregistrées dans le support, si des données d’image sont enregistrées dans le support en fonction d’une règle prédéterminée ou si un fichier d’informations prédéterminé est enregistré dans le support. Les moyens de production de données d’impression (15) produisent des données d’impression permettant de présenter et d’imprimer une image sur la base des données d’image enregistrées dans le support d’enregistrement, des informations d’identification et des informations entrées. Les moyens de commande d’impression (16) amènent, si nécessaire, les moyens d’impression à imprimer l’image et les lettres sur une étiquette du support d’enregistrement et une jaquette de chemise de stockage sur la base des données d’impression. Une image et des lettres désirées peuvent être imprimées sur une étiquette d’un support d’enregistrement ou une jaquette d’une chemise de stockage grâce à une opération simple.
