\"ZebraThe challenge:<\/strong>
\nAcquire information from existing barcodes
\nPrint labels easily and on demand<\/p>\n

The solution:<\/strong>
\nCombine the opportunities brought by Zebra\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s QL 320 mobile printer<\/a> and Falcon 320 mobile terminal<\/a>
\nAdd printing options to Falcon 320 software<\/p>\n

The results:<\/strong>
\nCompliance with labeling regulations Savings on staff time Flexible and time efficient label printing<\/a><\/p>\n

The challenge<\/strong>
\nAHOLD Czech Republic\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s aim was to improve labeling of pre-packaged meat products in their stores. On receipt of these meat products they only had one label indicating weight. Ahold also used to add an extra price label using a weighing machine.<\/p>\n

In order to consolidate information on both these labels, Ahold had to change the way of attaching price labels. The only solution was to scan weight information from the original label and print a new price label based on the original weight.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The solution<\/strong>
\nAhold decided on a mobile printing solution due its flexibility. Ahold\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s local long-term channel partner for bar coding and mobile printing solutions recommended Zebra\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s QL 320 mobile printer. Being light and easy to use, Zebra\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s QLTM series mobile printers ensured that employees were free to walk to areas where printing was quickest and easiest. Consequently this saved time by eliminating the need to move between stationary printers and pre-packaged meat products.<\/p>\n

The implementation<\/strong>
\nDuring implementation the Falcon 320 was successfully modified to run \u00e2\u20ac\u0153mobile printing\u00e2\u20ac\u009d as an extra option. Following a pilot program in selected stores, the project\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s new mobile printing systems ensured that packages of meat were now being quickly and accurately labelled. Ahold subsequently decided to roll out the technology into all AHOLD Czech Republic super- and hypermarket stores nationwide.<\/p>\n

The results<\/strong>
\nOne of the main benefits of this solution was the ability to meet product labelling legal requirements. Zebra\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s mobile printing solutions also incorporated extra capability for staff to scan and print new barcodes on demand. In addition, mobile printing with a mobile terminal gave Ahold the opportunity to reduce costs further, improve time in addition to overall staff efficiency.<\/p>\n

Ahold is now working on a project to fully exploit the possibilities of Zebra\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s QL 320 mobile printer and the Falcon terminal for price labeling, mark downs and shelf edge labeling across its whole range of goods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
