How to Select, Print, and Encode RFID Tags
Wednesday, August 3rd, 2:00 PM – 2:30 PM ET
Presented By:
Chris Brown – RFID Subject Matter Expert at TSC Printronix Auto ID
Carlo Emanuele – Vice President and General Manager, Consumables at Barcodes Group
About the RFID Tag Webinar
IDTechEx forecast that 41.2 billion RAIN RFID tags will be sold in 2024, up from 15 billion just three years ago.
To enable you to track your assets with unprecedented accuracy, using the right tag will determine the success of an RFID implementation from the very beginning.
But how do you determine the encoding scheme to use at your organization, and the most appropriate tag or label to support this?
During this webinar, the following questions are answered:
- Why do you need to be concerned about encoding “good data†to RFID tags?
- How do you select an RFID tag that finds the optimal balance between size and read range?
- What role can a partner play in assisting with pre-printed/pre-encoded labels or providing solutions for your on-demand printing?

How RFID Cycle Counting Can Increase Speed at Lower Costs (Webinar)

About This Webinar:
RFID Cycle Counting: Increase Inventory Collection Speed at Lower Costs
Thursday, June 30th, 2:00 PM – 2:30 PM ET
Presented By:
Matt Smith – SLS
Christopher Vassilos – Barcodes
Why RFID for Cycle Counting is Transformative
Most businesses today conduct inventory counts as part of their operations. Traditional means of collecting this data include tallying products on a count sheet or scanning barcodes off product labeling, both of which are time consuming and prone to error.
Using RFID technology for cycle counting reduces labor cost and automates the workflow. The result is greater accuracy, improved asset utilization, as well as reducing lost or out of inventory situations.
During this webinar, you will be shown the following:
- A demonstration of cycle counting using RFID technology in action
- An overview of the components of the SLS Mobile Solution
- Various scenarios of deployment, including the use of robotics

We hope to see you there! For an assessment of your company’s ROI potential with RFID, please reach out to us at [email protected] or visit Barcodes and SLS RFID Solutions.
Genuine Zebra Labels: Understanding Their Impact on Barcode Printers and Overall Barcode Quality

Zebra’s full line of certified labels ensures that your printer provides the quality, reliability, and performance you expect.
Printing supplies can impact everything from printhead lifespan to operational efficiency. That’s why Zebra designs, produces, and rigorously pre-tests our own line of thermal printing supplies to ensure consistent, optimized performance of your Zebra printer. Zebra labels are also known as Certified Zebra Supplies.
Genuine Zebra Labels: Available in Many Different Materials
Zebra paper labels are designed for shipping labels and short-term asset tags.
Zebra polypropylene labels handle demanding internal environments.
Zebra polyester labels provide superior print quality with an extremely rugged material to survive any internal or external environment.
Zebra labels also come in hard-to-find label sizes and can be created custom to your specific requirements. Which Zebra label is right for your printer?
Direct Thermal Printer Labels
Direct thermal printers utilize a chemically treated label/stock that turns black when the thermal printhead applies heat to the surface of the material. These printers don’t require any ribbon, ink, or toner to print, making them a very cost-effective solution. Direct thermal printing can fade over time and should avoid excessive heat or exposure to sunlight for best results.
Thermal Transfer Printer Labels
Thermal transfer printers are the perfect solution for long term labeling as they utilize a ribbon for printing. As the printhead applies heat to the ribbon, it melts onto the label surface which can be a variety of materials including polyester and polypropylene. With a longer lifespan and options for rugged label materials, thermal printers are ideal for product labeling, inventory and asset tracking, and outdoor applications.
Benefits of Zebra Print Labels
Zebra and Barcodes offer label solutions which fit a wide variety of operational printing needs. Genuine Zebra labels enhance operations and reduce costs with:
- Superior print quality
- Extremely rugged material that can survive in any internal or external environment
- Various sizes, materials and adhesive types
- Option to customize label size and features
- ISO 9001-certified
