Myth Busters, Busts RFID

By Dana Ritchie | September 3, 2008

Mythbusters tried to do a show on RFID technology.  One of my vendors sent me this clip from YouTube that I wanted to share.  My hope is that this technology will be more viable and come down in price.  Many of my customers are asking about it, but very few have stepped up to the…

Were In At The Design 2 Part Trade Show!

By Dana Ritchie | September 3, 2008

It took 8 months of trying, but we finally received the green light and we will be exhibiting at the Design 2 Part trade show in Marlboro, MA on November 5 & 6 2008.  One of the reasons this show was of interest to PaladinID is because this targets our core audience and 98% of the exhibitors…

Barcode Printing 101

By Dana Ritchie | August 19, 2008

I came across a white paper called Barcode Printing 101 from one of our vendors Datamax Corporation that talked about barcode printing.  It was one of the best reads I have seen in a long time.  It talks about the different barcode symbologies and where they are used along with the media, labels and ribbons…

By Dana Ritchie | August 18, 2008

Recently, PaladinID was contacted by a retail client with a serious and time sensitive business problem.  They are opening their first stores in MA and have discovered that our busy elected officials on Beacon Hill have thrown them an unanticipated curve ball.  It is a law in this Commonwealth that all items in a store…

Mobile Printers Can Now Print Permanent Labels!

By Dana Ritchie | August 14, 2008

Datamax Corporation just released a new product called D-Transfer that allows mobile portable printers to use thermal transfer printing for a much more permanent label than what is currently available using direct thermal labels.  All mobile printers use direct thermal label stock which have a short shelf and use life.  The companies the use labels and barcodes have asked for…

New Thermal Transfer Ribbon

By Dana Ritchie | July 28, 2008

DNP has released a new thermal transfer ribbon called the W127 that works in all thermal transfer printers.  It is a wax formulation that is 15% longer than the traditional 1,476′ for a Zebra printer and 984′ for a Datamax or Sato printer.  You ask, how can this be?  It is because they use a…

On-Line Bar Code Verification Revisited

By Dana Ritchie | July 28, 2008

In an earlier post we talked about an application in which our client needed to verify the print quality of bar codes as they were being printed.  We recommended an after market bolt-on scanning device that could trigger a divert from the manufacturing line if a sub-standard bar code was detected. Well, we have another client with a…

By Dana Ritchie | July 21, 2008

Last week Dana and I took the opportunity to visit with a number of our vendor partners in the Buffalo NY area.  Dana was there with his family visiting Niagara Falls and I drove from Boston to join him.  We met with one of our distribution partners, Bluestar who has a regional office in West…
