Abstract
A system and method of printing an image on corrugated material may include receiving a digital representation of an image. A print target may be printed on a first corrugated material with respect to a print location. It may be determined whether an error distance between the print target and a die cut target is less than a threshold. The print location may be automatically adjusted based on the error distance. The image may be printed on a second corrugated material based on the adjusted print location.

A method of printing an image on corrugated material comprising:
- receiving a digital representation of an image;
- printing a print target on a first corrugated material with respect to a print location;
- determining whether an error distance between the print target and a die cut target is less than a threshold;
- automatically adjusting the print location based on the error distance;
- and
- printing the image on a second corrugated material based on the adjusted print location.
A system of printing an image on corrugated material comprising:
- a processor;
- an assembly device in communication with the processor;
- and
- a computer readable storage medium in communication with the processor,
- wherein the computer readable storage medium contains one or more programming instructions executed by the processor for:
- receiving a digital representation of an image;
- printing a print target on a first corrugated material with respect to a print location;
- determining whether an error distance between the print target and a die cut target is less than a threshold;
- automatically adjusting the print location based on the error distance;
- and
- printing the image on a second corrugated material based on the adjusted print location.
A method of printing an image on corrugated material comprising:
- receiving a digital representation of an image;
- printing a print target on a first corrugated material with respect to a print location;
- determining whether an error distance between the print target and a die cut target is less than a threshold;
- automatically adjusting the print location by adjusting a time at which the print target is printed based on the error distance;
- printing the image on a second corrugated material based on the adjusted print location.
