(7) Printing on Bump (Chip/Antenna) Area
Embedding an RFID tag in labels creates bumps on the label surface, causing incomplete printing.
Uneven printing or incomplete printing can occur easily, especially within 5 mm back and forth and right and left
sides of the RFID-tag embedded area, as shown in the figure below.

(8) Ambient Temperature
As low temperature deteriorates wireless performance, writing data on an RFID tag may fail under such
conditions.
(9) Strip Issue
Stripping performance in strip issue mode depends on the type of glue, tag, and backing paper. For some RFID
supplies used, a strip issue may not be performed properly.
(10) Caution for Minimum Label Pitch Length
When media, of which label pitch length is short, is used, data may be written on an RFID tag next to the target
RFID tag.
As the location, where data is to be written, differs among RFID tag types, a check must be performed to make
sure that the data is written on the target RFID tags. The B-SX RFID Analyze Tool can be used for this purpose.
For details, please contact the nearest TOSHIBA TEC service representative.
NOTE: The degree of poor printing quality differs depending on height of a chip/antenna used.
