Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)

The Lexmark solution

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is an established technology that is being leveraged in exciting new ways to provide increased business value and organizational benefits. Recent mandates by world-class retail organizations and the U.S. Department of Defense requiring RFID tags on all products shipped to them have transformed the supply chain forever. RFID tags, which are continually getting smaller and less expensive, provide organizations the ability to seamlessly track items, assets and documents throughout their process. Many other organizations that are not bound by mandates, but recognize the opportunity to improve business processes and business intelligence are also moving to adopt the technology. Companies are realizing that RFID is not just a technology but a real business tool that can help them improve their bottom line throughout their business, not just in the shipping department.

Leveraging our rich heritage to reliably print on a wide range of media, Lexmark introduced the first RFID laser printer that has opened the door to a wide range of solution possibilities across all industries. In fact, it was recently recognized by the RFID industry as one of the best new RFID technology innovations for 2008 by RFID Switchboard and was first runner-up for Best of Show at the 2008 RFID Journal conference. Lexmark RFID-enabled laser printers can print, program and verify the tag on media from 5" x 7" labels up to legal-size documents. Moreover, the printer can support many types of media such as vinyl, integrated and paper labels. Organizations are quickly realizing the reliability and flexibility of the Lexmark RFID solution.

The RFID laser printer is a critical component of the overall RFID solution (portals, software, and other integrated components) that organizations are implementing. Lexmark RFID products are sold through our resellers, who can deliver a number of innovative RFID solutions that leverage the strength of Lexmark laser-based print technology.
