Re: Label Printers ?

We use Intermec 3400 printers.  Labels come on rolls.  Often they are 
hooked up to a MarkNet device that our i5 talks to.

I estimate that we have over 84 barcode printers.

Label Printers ?






Hi folks,

 

Iâve been approached about the feasibility of creating an application to
produce labels for our shipping folks. We are a wholesale distributor and 
do
a lot of transfers between branches (10). These transfer items range in 
size
from tiny to water heater size or bigger. It is the smaller items that are
an issue. You could throw a number of small items into a bag, seal it and
stick it in a box. They want labels to stick on these bags to note what
transfer items are in them. They will enter a transfer number and that 
will
show them all the items on the transfer and then THEY can choose how many
labels they need. This information will consist of a 6 position Item # and 
a
30 character Description. We currently printer Bin Labels (here in mass â
not at the branches) and Customer mailing labels on the standard 3 Â x 
15/16
âAveryâ labels.

 

The real issue gets to be what type of printer to use. They will need one
dedicated to this and I am not sure what to choose or how to write to it. 
We
have used the Eltron printers for UPS and the labels come on rolls. But 
that
is a PC application that writes to that printer. 

 

Any ideas or experience with something like this ?

 

Thanks,

 

Chuck
