Here's what Imprint has to offer:
- Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) family of bar code formats designed specifically to help grocers identify and manage loose produce, perishables, variable-weight items, and other difficult-to-mark products. Imprint has RSS-capable printers to meet all labeling needs with various label sizes and volumes, including stock label materials that withstand all food processing, storage, and display conditions, providing accurate identification at the point-of-sale.

- Mobile and cart-mounted printers make shelf labeling and price marking tasks more efficient by producing labels in the aisle, on demand. Utilize their wireless network connectivity to link with in-store systems to audit prices and create accurate new labels in real time.
- Featuring Zebra's innovative, wireless DEX (a US technology) interface allows you to electronically process Direct Store Delivery (DSD) transactions without cables or connecting computer terminals in the receiving area.

Food Safety
Full food supply chain visibility provides an extra layer of protection when a food borne illness occurs, such as a salmonella or listeria outbreak. Visibility allows growers and distributors to determine if the contamination occurred at the source, or was introduced within the distribution process, and who else may be affected. Adding this level of visibility can save lives as well as a time, money, and reputation.
Some of the applications and benefits of enabling bar code and RFID accuracy are:
- Improve receiving dock productivity
- Enable cross-docking
- Accurate lot control
- Streamline warehouse management
- Fulfill and track shipping orders
- Accurate recall management
- Simplify returns management
- Tighten container management
Freezer Products
Freezer-grade labels stay adhered when frozen, unlike standard adhesives which fall off when exposed to cold temperatures. This feature makes them ideal for food packaging and storage, as well as laboratory settings. Another application for freezer labels is in industrial situations with exposure to outdoor elements.
