The PRESS framework. Five questions, one right match.
Most consumables failures come from a spec miss, not a printer issue. PRESS walks through the five variables our team uses to get the match right the first time. Share your answers with a Barcodes, Inc. specialist and get SKU recommendations same day.
Printer
Industrial, desktop, or mobile. Drives core size and roll length.
Resistance
Chemical, UV, and abrasion exposure during the label's life.
Environment
Indoor, outdoor, cold chain, or wash-down.
Surface
Curved or flat, rough or smooth, paper, plastic, or metal.
Size
Printhead width, label height, and inner core compatibility.
Example: printer plus application drives the media match.

Common questions before you reorder.
What is matched media?
Matched media means labels and ribbons are selected for the printer model, application, surface, and environment instead of chosen by size alone.

Yes. Share the printer model and application details, and a Barcodes, Inc. specialist can recommend matched media options using the PRESS framework.
Do you support RFID and custom labels?
