Need an RFID Tag Printer? A New Lexmark Tool Can Help Your With That
It may be an expensive add-on (it costs a hefty $2,500 for the addition to the T654 monochrome laser printer which costs about 1200-1700 on its own.) but if you’re in the market for an RFID tag printer the Lexmark RFID UHF Option could be just what you’re looking for. If your printer is equipped with the add-on it produces individual Radio Frequency Identification tags for the purpose of tracking specific items like individual files and hardware to make access and retrieval easier. It can be put directly on the items or put inside boxes and be tracked by a locator device that can read its serial number. It produces 20 RFID radio tagged pages every minute (this on media that is 5×7-8.5×14 inches in either a vertical or horizontal format).
The technical advancement could be quite helpful for those in the healthcare and manufacturing industries who must maintain large stores of important documents and products as part of their jobs (at a reduced cost compared to that of thermal printers normally used) but there are a few things to remember. Keep in mind it will replace a printer tray in your T654 and it is different than a dedicated RFID thermal printer which prints the tags exclusively and therefore could have some differences. It also means buying special paper already made up for RFID tag use (the printer assigns the tags and labels them with specific codes when it prints on the paper). It’s a major investment but it could help with filling and categorizing projects that never seem to be quite as organized as they should be.
