7.1.5 RFID Tags
Available RFID tag types are different depending on the RFID modules, as follows:
B-9704-RFID-U1-US-R and B-9704-RFID-U1-EU-R
• EPC Class 1
• ISO18000-6B
B-9704-RFID-H1-QM-R
• TAGSYS C210
• TAGSYS C220
• TAGSYS C240
• I-Code
• Tag-it
• ISO15693
Cautions for using RFID Tags
(1) Lift-up of Print Head
An RFID tag chip or the print head may be damaged when the print head passes over the chip.
This can be prevented by using the ribbon saving module (standard feature for the B-SX5T and optional for the
B-SX4T). The print head is lifted by the ribbon saving module when it passes over the chip to prevent it from
touching the chip.
The print head is lifted by approximately 1 mm from the platen.
(2) Storage of RFID Supplies
Do not store RFID tags close to printers, or their communication performance may not be as specified when they
are used.
(3) Roll-type RFID Supplies
When RFID supplies are to be rolled, roll hardness must be concerned.
Although it depends on the type of glue, tag, and backing paper, RFID-tag embedded labels tend to stay rolled.
Especially, when they are wound outside, a paper jam error may occur. Unless otherwise specified, it is
recommended that the RFID-tag embedded labels be wound inside.
(4) Sensor
When the transmissive sensor or reflective sensor is enabled, transmissivity or reflectivity of a label or tag may
vary at an RFID-tag embedded area depending on the pattern of an antenna or other factors. In such cases, a
manual threshold setting is required. For details, refer to Section 2.13 Threshold Setting.
(5) Cutter
When an RFID label or tag is used in cut issue mode, care must be taken not to cut an antenna of the RFID tag or
an IC chip in order not to damage the cutter.
(6) Static Electricity
When printing is performed in a place where humidity is low or under some specific conditions, writing data on
an RFID tag may fail due to static electricity generated by a label or a ribbon.
