Zebra Technologies is a major player in plastic card printing and was incorporated in the year 1969 as ‘Data Specialties Incorporated’, which was majorly a manufacturer of high-speed electromechanical products. This organization switched over its focus to specialty on-demand labeling and ticketing systems in the year 1982, and became ‘Zebra Technologies Corporation’ in the year 1986. Zebra became a publicly traded company in the year 1991. Today, this company has cut out a niche for itself with huge annual sales for the organization. The company at present time specialises in speciality printer products, printer supplies and RFID technologies. Zebra printers use the method of specialized page formatting language called Zebra Programming Language commonly known as ZPL. Some printers also use a “Zebra Basic Interpreter” commonly called ZBI 2 to allow the user to capture and manipulate incoming data for use in the printing. Labels and documents can be designed using the ¨Zebra Designer Pro” label design software. It had been surveyed that Zebra cards are widely used by millions of people from all walks of life and among all age groups and various professions.
