ESC+IP0 — RFID EPC Write
Plain English
Writes data to the EPC (Electronic Product Code) memory bank of a UHF RFID tag. The EPC is the main identifier stored on the tag — it's what gets read when an RFID reader scans the label. This is the core command for RFID-enabled labels.
When to use
Whenever you're printing RFID labels and need to encode the tag. Used in retail, logistics, inventory management, and supply chain applications.
