Product Marking: Manufacturers of computer components use the TLP 3844-Z to print tiny
labels to identify small parts such as chips, processors and CPU boards. The 300 dpi TLP 3844-Z
is able to print fine text and barcodes on these very small labels so that they are clear, crisp and
human readable as well as providing a highly accurate scan rates. A surprising amount of data
can be packed into a small component label due to high-density printing and two-dimensional bar
code symbologies which allow more detailed information to be embedded into the bar code. Bar
coding facilitates asset management and sub-assembly suppliers are able to track the assembly
process with the bar coded components.
When configured with the internal ZebraNet PrintServer II, one or more TLP 3844-Z printers can
be connected to ERP systems via Ethernet and become a seamless part of any company
network. The compact printer does not take up much room on workstations, freeing space for
manufacturing and assembly.
Agency labels: Manufacturers of electronic goods and devices (from computers to televisions to
label printers) are required to place a label on their product to denote certification by agencies
such as UL or FCC. The agency logo, fine print and the bar code must be visible and clearly
printed. The 300 dpi 3844-Z is ideal for printing these labels and Zebra actually uses them to print
agency labels for the desktop printers!
