A marked target representation () includes a human-cognizable relation mark (). The marked target representation represents a target. An image capture device () is used to capture () an image () of the target representation. A data structure () indicating a relation between a user () of the image capture device and the target is generated () using the image.

Identifying user-target relation

Methods and systems for defining packaging components are provided. An exemplary embodiment provides an expert system () for defining packaging components. The expert system includes a processor () and a memory (). The memory () includes code () configured to direct the processor () to obtain a product definition, obtain lifecycle parameters, and access a database (, or) to identify packaging components that match the lifecycle parameters and product definition.

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for aggregating print jobs of different lengths and/or customers to decrease the need for rewinding and splicing operations. An exemplary embodiment provides a method that comprises identifying individual label-printing jobs (1-8) that can be aggregated onto a roll of substrate (), and forming an aggregated label-printing job (). In the aggregated label-printing job () a longest print job (8) is imposed adjacent to a first end of the roll of substrate (), and one or more shorter print jobs (2, 5, 7) are imposed adjacent to the longest print job (8) in the direction of a second end of the roll of substrate ().
