Introduction

This Quick Reference contains supply loading an d general maintenance
procedures. Additional RFID documents are available on the enclosed CD-ROM
and on our Web site (www .monarch.com).

Note: Information in this document supercedes information in previous versions .

Check our Web site for the latest documentation and release information.

RFID Overview

Your printer has been engineer ed to program (encode) an RFID (Radio Fre quency
Identification) label (commonly called “RFID tags”) before the label’s forma t is
printed. RFID tags contain an embedded RFID inlay (chip and antenna) .

RFID is only available on the Monarch® 9855™ printer using die cut or black mark
supplies. Linerless supplies are not current ly supported. The RFID printer is also
capable of printing standard (non-RFID) supplies. For more information about
supplies, see “RFID Supply Specifications.”

The UHF printer supports multi-protocol encoding , including Class 1 Generation 1
(C1Gen1), Class 1 Generation 2 (C1Gen2), and EM4122 supplies.

The HF printer supports multi-protocol encoding, including ISO15693 and I•CODE®
UID protocols.
