Barcode printers are specialty printers that produce barcodes and product labels. Barcode printers differ from standard printers in that they generate a barcode print image using different consumables. These printers are designed to print clear, machine-readable barcodes at faster speeds and at a lower cost.
A barcode printer is an electronic equipment that is specifically designed to produce barcodes. A barcode printer’s operation and design differ differently from those of a computer printer since it produces a barcode utilising ribbons and labels in tandem. Barcode printers typically lack programmable logic controllers and rely on an external computer system.
After the 2008 economic downturn, the manufacturing sector is reviving. A large number of manufacturing companies around the world are implementing automation and process streamlining to reduce time and material waste, thereby improving efficiency and output. Barcoding is one such technique that is becoming more popular. This process has significantly reduced production time in the manufacturing process, driving demand for barcode printers.
For storing and labelling product information, barcodes have become the de facto norm. Barcodes are used by retailers all over the world to easily record supplies and commodities, as well as client sales. Labelled barcodes are attached to products and record information such as product count, date of manufacturing, date given to retailer, selling price, and so on.
The information is retrieved and monitored when these products are scanned. This entire process, which takes only a few seconds, not only increases efficiency but also reduces errors. This has aided retailers in keeping track of their products and inventory on store floors and in warehouses.
However, the threat of RFID tags as barcode label substitutes, as well as the incompatibility of barcode printers with various operating systems, act as restraints in the global barcode printer market.
