Use case: Product packaging
QR codes on packaging: manual, video and after-sales inside the box
What is printed on a box is fixed for the whole run: revise the manual and the paper sheets in the warehouse are scrap. Once the manual and the videos sit behind a scan, the printed sheet only has to carry the essentials.
Code types that suit Product packaging
Type names and descriptions come straight from the platform’s type list — no second set of wording here.

How to use and place it
How to print for Product packaging, where the code goes and what to change later, one point at a time.
- PDF for the manual, video for the operation
- Illustrated instructions answer "what is this"; a short video answers "how do I fit and use it". Two jobs, clearly split, and customers take whichever they need.
- Give after-sales its own code
- The outer box carries installation and use; the warranty card carries service and repair, so nobody has to dig through the packaging to raise a ticket.
- Coexist with the distribution barcode, do not replace it
- A GS1 barcode identifies goods in logistics and warehousing; a marketing QR code serves customer-facing content. Different jobs — they should not be merged.
