ABSTRACT:
Thermal printer donor media element (10) with a single track of code including sequential code segments (30). The present donor media element (10) includes sequential color patches (12, 14, 16) which form multiple color groups (18) located along the length of the element (10), and the code segments (30) are arranged in corresponding repetitive groups located adjacent the color groups (18), the sequential code segments including fields of encoded data representative of at least donor media type, and color and location of successive ones of the color patches (12, 14, 16). Apparatus for detecting and reading the encoded data include a single sensor (38) and a processor (44) operable for accurately completing incomplete or incorrectly detected data.
