Multi-Purpose Printing

A smart application

A growing application for thermal transfer has come by way of smart labels. While RFID tags and labels are enabled with radio frequency capabilities, there is still a need for readable information on the labels.

“Over the last year or so, we’ve seen countless articles in USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, and even the local newspaper about RFID. These sources have been reporting that RFID tags will soon be on everything we buy and Wal-Mart is forcing all their vendors to put tags on all their cartons and pallets. All of them keep coming to the same conclusion: the bar code is as good as dead,” Schmitt said.
