Intermec Country Of Origin Labeling Solution
•Application Brief: Intermec Country Of Origin Labeling
Application Description
In 2008, the USDA Country of Origin requirements expanded in scope. By March 31, 2009,
food manufacturers and distributors need to clearly identify national origin for many
products and provide corresponding recordkeeping documents with each shipment. Mishaps
in this process can cost time, money, and even valued customers. Users can now streamline,
error-proof, and cost-reduce this process with Intermec's Country of Origin Labeling solution.
The Challenge
Meeting the Country of Origin requirement commonly requires multiple steps: A thermal
printer images the national origin information on a shipping label, meeting the identification
portion of the standard. A separate printer, typically dot matrix or laser, creates the
packing slip to meet recordkeeping requirements; this slip is usually folded multiple times
and inserted into a packing slip sleeve. Finally, this sleeve is manually matched to the
corresponding carton (introducing potential for error) and adhered for shipment.
Intermec Solution
The Intermec Country of Origin Labeling solution enables users to print shipping label
and recordkeeping documentation through a single printer. The shipping label and
packing slip are printed as a single integrated unit, reducing processing steps, eliminating
mismatch errors, and reducing the cost of system setup and maintenance. These two
complementary components (printer and media) accomplish mandated compliance simply
and efficiently.
