Retail

The retail industry plays an integral role in our daily lives, encompassing everything from buying clothing and groceries to ordering take-out meals, all of which involve labels. Labeling can be very demanding for the retail sector. In the modern-day retail world, there is a wide variety of labels that require flexibility to adapt to the industry's diverse applications.

Businesses today actively seek ways to minimize their environmental impact and enhance workplace safety. One effective approach is transitioning from traditional labels to linerless labels. This transition not only reduces environmental impact but also aligns seamlessly with regulatory compliance, significantly enhancing operational efficiency.

As the world economy has decelerated since 2021, job markets in OECD countries remain strained. Despite employment rates returning to pre-pandemic levels and unemployment rates hitting their lowest since the early 1970s, a stark labor shortage persists due to a lack of qualified talent, highlighting a supply-demand imbalance.

Reducing material use and waste is one of the methods to achieve a more sustainable future. Linerless labels offer an economical and eco-friendly solution for labeling. By removing the liner, more labels can be printed per roll, reducing waste and contributing to a sustainable environment.

QR codes link buyers and sellers, enabling a conversation about a variety of specific product information. They offer an inexpensive way for manufacturers and factories to place relevant data on their products and packages before they arrive at a retailer or distributor. Leveraging QR codes allows manufacturers and retailers to deepen relationships with their customers by easily providing valuable product information, coupons, surveys, marketing material, and instructions via accessible links to assist customers with purchase decisions while gathering consumer input.

Say goodbye to the frustrations of unscannable barcodes. ODV 2D technology from TSC Auto ID, an innovative barcode inspection print system, ushers in an era of operational efficiency and supply chain precision.

In today's world, there is a great variety of media available to meet the growing demands of diverse printing applications. While having the ability to print long labels and specific labels for various vertical market applications is important, achieving precise printing is a different challenge altogether. These labels often pose difficulties as printers are typically designed for common or frequently used media. Additionally, printers need to be able to adjust for special or difficult media. That's where the TH DH Series comes in, offering an easy solution for printing difficult labels. The TH DH Series is specially designed to provide end users with precise label printing capabilities, with vertical DPI (dots per inch) being a key factor in achieving this level of accuracy.

Printer management is necessary for the proper functioning and completion of print jobs. Tasks such as printer configurations, condition monitoring, and troubleshooting are essential. However, managing printers, especially on a large shop floor or printer fleet, can be challenging. That’s why real-time remote management is a vital aspect of printer management as it allows for printer control from anywhere on the premises. The TH DH Series Desktop Printer enhances real-time remote printer management in three ways: the Internal Embedded Webpage, the virtual control panel, and two software tools－TSC Console and SOTI Connect.

When you purchase apparel items, you will notice they always come with a hang tag and a care label. Based on Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and European Union (EU) regulations, labels are required on apparel products to clearly state necessary information in order to sell to end consumers. Typically manufacturers have the labels printed by service bureaus specializing in these types of labels. However, this approach has limited flexibility for change since the label contents have already been set. It also results in additional costs to print new labels and makes it harder to manage inventory for the variety of labels. Manufacturers can use an in-house label printer to overcome difficulties and conquer apparel label printing with ease.
