RFID Printer Technician

Position Overview: The RFID Printer Technician is responsible for supporting the deployment and upgrade of RFID-enabled printing solutions across customer shipper locations.

This role is critical to the successful rollout of RFID tunnel implementations by ensuring that all printers are properly installed, configured, and validated to meet operational and labeling requirements.

The technician will replace existing printers with RFID-capable Zebra printers, configure settings to match existing print formats, and verify that RFID tags are properly encoded and embedded within labels.

• Replace existing non-RFID printers with RFID-capable printers (primarily Zebra models)
• Install, configure, and test printers at customer shipper locations
• Ensure all hardware is properly connected (network, power, peripherals)

• Configure printer settings to match existing label formats and workflows
• Validate that labels print identically to current output (format, barcode, readability)
• Verify correct RFID encoding and successful tag embedding in each label
• Ensure EPC/tag data is written correctly during print operations
• Perform test prints and scan validation to confirm system accuracy

• Troubleshoot encoding failures, print issues, and connectivity problems
• Identify and resolve issues related to tag readability, encoding errors, or label defects
• Assist in diagnosing printer performance problems (configuration, media, hardware)
