The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.barcodesinc.com\/zebra\/110xi4.htm\">R110Xi4<\/a> streamlines business improvement and supply-chain management applications such as item-level tracking, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.barcodesinc.com\/solutions\/market-applications\/asset.htm\">asset tracking<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.barcodesinc.com\/solutions\/market-applications\/inventory.htm\">inventory management<\/a> and more across retail, manufacturing, healthcare and distribution channels.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Zebra is responding to an overall RFID market shift from compliance-based tracking to more item-level tracking with the high performance RXi4,&#8221; said Carolyn Ricci, product manager, Zebra Technologies. &#8220;The RXi4&#8217;s new RFID printer\/encoder brings innovation, functionality, and cost benefits to an industry that hasn&#8217;t seen technology like this rise up to meet the demand head on &#8212; making it a smart investment for organizations with high-volume, mission critical or specialty labeling applications.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->According to a recent survey from VDC, average corporate investment in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.barcodesinc.com\/solutions\/market-applications\/rfid.htm\">RFID solutions<\/a> is expected to grow by more than 200 percent over the next year to nearly $7 million in 2011. This increase can be attributed to spillover demand from retail to manufacturing, healthcare and other industries for item-level tracking to better monitor inventory levels and track assets, noted Ricci.<\/p>\n<p>Building on more than 10 years of industry expertise in RFID printing\/encoding, Zebra&#8217;s RXi4 overcomes one of the largest barriers to RFID adoption &#8212; media cost. The RXi4 benefits many organizations by reducing RFID media costs by up to 10 percent. By providing a printer\/encoder with Zebra&#8217;s exclusive patent-pending Adaptive Encoding technology, the RXi4 can detect the RFID inlay position within the label and automatically configure the printer\/encoder without having to manually calibrate for the inlay &#8212; ensuring tag accuracy and saving time and money.<\/p>\n<p>Other market differentiating features of the RXi4 include:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>On-pitch encoding &#8212; Ability to print\/encode small tags very close together with a distance as narrow as .6-inch\/16 mm producing savings in media costs. By spacing inlays closer together, label converters use less material which converts to lower cost per label, fewer media roll changes and faster printer\/encoder throughput.<\/li>\n<li>Variable inlay placement &#8212; The printer automatically senses the RFID inlay position to optimize encoding and enables companies to use media converted for other-brand printer\/encoders with minimal printer reconfiguration.<\/li>\n<li>Global certifications &#8212; With more and more businesses going global, organizations with multinational supply chains can easily deploy the same R110Xi4 printer\/encoder in multiple countries through Zebra&#8217;s global certification process.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Based on Zebra&#8217;s Xi4 printers &#8212; introduced earlier this year &#8212; the RXi4 incorporates rugged durability, consistent outstanding print quality, fast print speed, long life and unparalleled reliability in demanding applications. The RXi4 complements Zebra&#8217;s existing line of products for item-level tagging such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.barcodesinc.com\/zebra\/rz400.htm\">RZ400 printer\/encoder<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.barcodesinc.com\/zebra\/p4t.htm\">P4T mobile thermal transfer printer<\/a> with optional RFID upgradability for inventory management from the store floor. Both the RZ400 and P4T boasts an array of features that easily handle a variety of printing needs while being intuitive and user-friendly. The advanced, ergonomic design stands up to the most demanding work environments and is applicable across many industries, including government, manufacturing, transportation, logistics, mobile workforce and field service.<\/p>\n<p>For a video of the RXi4 printer, please visit: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NSrpc5maJjw.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New RFID printing\/encoding technology responds to market demand for a rugged high performance printer that reduces media costs, creates efficiencies Zebra announced its first high performance RFID printer\/encoder designed to address the growing RFID market for high-volume item-level tagging.
