Factors Affecting Smart Label Performance What To Expect When Running Your RFID Application Factors Affecting Smart Label Performance Smart labels are based on an EEPROM technology that requires some time to be programmed. You may notice this minor pause between labels. This time is necessary to better ensure consistent quality and improved reliability. When dealing with smart labels, it is possible that an occasional RFID tag may need to be written and verified more than once (retry) befor

Chapter 1 Transitioning From UCC/GTIN Applications Using Printronix Soft- Transitioning From UCC/GTIN Applications Using Printronix Software Migration Tools (SMT) It is likely that your software is already set up to create bar codes. You may have also spent a lot of time creating compliance label templates & integrating them into your system. The Smart Label Developer’s Kit Software Migration Tools will allow you to effortlessly transition from printing compliance labels to smart labels. H

How It Works EPC: This tool allows EPC data to be directly encoded into the smart label’s RFID tag. Simply have your existing software application write the desired EPC number to a Code 3 of 9 barcode. The printer will then write the EPC data to the RFID tag without printing the bar code. The existing toolset will meet the needs of many RFID early adopters. If you have a requirement for a Software Migration Tool not included in this kit, feel free to contact Printronix. To select and use

2 Smart Label Development Overview This chapter describes how to use the RFID encoder. The RFID encoder is designed to be transparent to the printer operation. It provides the capability of programming smart labels (with embedded RFID tags) while printing the label format. The smart labels are provided with the printer or purchased separately from Printronix. There are several ways to program RFID tags in smart labels: Use the Software Migration Tools (SMT) to enable the printer to auto
