U s i n g O p t i o n 6 5 ( S e r i a l i z ed E P C D a t a )
Us ing Vers ion 1.7 or greater firm ware, the printer s upports s erializ ed EPC data, whic h c om bines
EPC data with a unique s erial num ber. The unique s erial num ber is always 38 bits of data. The
EPC data c an c ontain a Global Trade Item Num ber (GTIN), but it is not lim ited only to GTIN data.
W hen s erializ ing EPC data, the RFID data entered in the batc h data is m odified before enc oding.
The printer c alc ulates the s erial num ber and ins erts the s erial num ber into the lower 38 bits
before enc oding. The original data in thos e lower 38 bits (if there was any) is replac ed. W e
rec om m end padding the RFID data with z eros to us e as plac eholders for thos e 38 bits .
The m inim um EPC length is 48 bits (10 bits of EPC data, plus the 38-bit s erial num ber); the
m axim um EPC length is 496 bits (458 bits of EPC data, plus the 38-bit s erial num ber).
Note : Set the RFID printer for s top-to-enc ode m ode for s erializ ed EPC data. Non-s top enc ode
m ode is not s upported.
