RFID Overview
Your printer has been engineered to program (encode) an RFID (Radio Frequency
Identification) label (commonly called “RFID tags”) before the label’s format 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 currently 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.
