Exact Color Matching With the CognitiveTPG Advantage LX and Barcodes.
Buying paint used to the first difficult step in painting a new room or home. Even after you’ve decided on the color to buy, inevitably you need to buy more paint to match that color.
One major US Hardware Chain makes it easy to buy cans of paint with exact color match using the CognitiveTPG Advantage LX printer and barcode labels. With every can of paint mixed, an Ethernet-enabled Advantage LX prints a barcode label containing the pigment mixture used for that paint color. To match a previous color, a customer brings the paint can lid back to the store. The paint department scans the barcode label on the lid, and the terminal displays the paint mixture for the perfect color match.

The customer with the oldest operational unit will win a $500 Visa gift card.
This promotion will run from June 1st through August 31, 2012.
