ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed for printing and applying two differing labels each including human readable information onto substantially rectangular packages in a manner such that the information on both labels is readable from one of at least two selectable side edges of the packages. A first label is applied in a selected physical angular orientation by a first label applier such that the human readable information thereon can be read from one selected side edge of the packages. The human readable information for a second label is stored as digital data which is assembled in a print buffer such that when it is printed onto the second label the information can be read from the same selected side edge of the packages once the second label is applied in a fixed physical angular orientation by a second label applier. In accordance with the method, human readable information printed upon two labels applied to packages can be made to read from the same side edges of the packages even though the first one of the labels is rotated to obtain a selected physical angular orientation and the second of the labels is not rotated but applied to the packages in a fixed physical angular orientation.
