A device data notification function for using input data from a barcode scanner, etc. connected to this product
as a trigger to receive print data or other data for controlling a device directly from the Web server and notifying
the control results to the application is implemented in the TM-Intelligent software.
The Web server application can control the printer and device designated simply by including print data or
device control data in the response.
You can configure a system for performing printing and controlling peripherals based on data notices from the
device.
General printing system applications commence printing from the application side. A function for including
print data in responses to printing requests cab be implemented in the applications mounted on Web servers
through device data notification. This function can be used to perform printing by using an ID number
scanned by a barcode scanner as a trigger.
