A high speed tabletop and industrial printer is disclosed with integrated high speed RFID encoding and verification at the same time. The industrial printer simultaneously prints on and electronically encodes/verifies RFID labels, tags, and/or stickers attached to a continuous web. The industrial printer comprises a lighted sensor array for indexing the printing to the RFID tags; and a cutter powered from the industrial printer for cutting the web that the RFID tags are disposed on. The industrial printer comprises two RFID reader/writers that are individually controlled. Specifically, one of the RFID reader/writers comprises the ability to electronically encode the RFID tags while the web is moving; and the second RFID reader/writer uses an additional RFID module and antenna on the printer for verifying the data encoded to the RFID tags.

Dual RFID modules in an RFID printer/encoder/verification system

This is disclosed a portable printer that is easy to load with an ink ribbon cartridge and record members web supplies, that is simple, has relatively few parts, is lightweight and has a small footprint.

Portable printer and methods

A cutter accessory is provided for use in combination with a printing device as part of a printing system. The cutter accessory includes a body that is configured to be mounted onto the printing device. An access door is mounted to the body and movable between a closed position and an open position. A slot is defined in the access door and configured to receive printed material from the printing device when the access door is in the closed position. A cutting blade is movably mounted to the body, with at least one cam being associated with the cutting blade. The cam is operable to move the cutting blade with respect to the slot to cut the printed material and is accessible when the access door is in the open position, but not accessible when the access door is in the closed position.

Further, the printer utilizes adaptive RFID power settings to prevent misreads and other errors when encoding tags.

Reduce inlay pitch singulation

There is disclosed a mounting assembly for mounting and securely latching a printer and a label supply roll. The mounting assembly is almost entirely constructed of fabricated sheet metal by cutting and bending. The mounting assembly is well suited to mount the printer and a supply roll in any attitude for example on a table, or on a wall or overhead in a forklift truck.
