Transitioning From UCC/GTIN Applications Using

Printronix Software Migration Tools (SMT)

It is likely that your software is already set up to create bar codes.

You may have also spent a lot of time creating compliance label

templates & integrating them into your system. The Smart Label

Developer's Kit Software Migration Tools will allow you to

effortlessly transition from printing compliance labels to smart

labels.

If you are printing bar codes now, you can print smart labels — no

change to your host data stream or existing compliance templates

is required.

A set of Software Migration Tools has been created to intercept the

bar code data in the host data stream and copy the data to a smart

label RFID tag according to a set of rules. Each tool has been

designed for a specific end-use application. By simply selecting the

desired Software Migration Tool from the printer's operator panel,

you automatically enable the printer to create an RFID smart label

from your existing software application even if it does not have the

functionality to program RFID tags. The tools include:

•

GTIN: Copies the Global Trade Identification Number (GTIN)

bar code data for case and pallet labels onto the smart label's

RFID tag.

EAN-8, EAN13, UPCA, and UCC128: These tools copy the

data from their respective bar code symbologies to a smart

label's RFID tag. This enables the achievement of supply-chain

efficiencies with RFID-ready trading partners while at the same

time remaining compatible with those who are not.
