Create and Print Labels
You can use Intermec printer software to design and print labels with the
PM23c, PM43, and PM43c printers. You can download label design
software and printer drivers from
http://www.intermec.com/products/
printers_media/software/index.aspx
You can also use command languages, like Fingerprint, and language
simulators, like ZSim, to create and print labels. For more information,
see the command reference manual for the language.
How to Print on RFID Media
If you have an LCD printer with the optional RFID module installed, you
can print on RFID media. Media containing RFID tags is slightly thicker
where the RFID tag is located. The slight thickness of this part of the label
may affect print quality. For thermal transfer labels, Intermec
recommends using high-quality ink ribbon.
To achieve the best possible print quality, follow these guidelines:
•
Run the RFID calibration wizard to determine the best Tag Position
and Output Power for RFID media.
•
If necessary, modify the Tag Position (TAGADJUST variable) to make
sure the RFID labels are properly aligned with the antenna.
•
Avoid printing on the thickest part of the label when possible.
For help configuring RFID parameters, see the
