EIM Provides Pre-printed or Blank Labels
Pre-printed labels
(From a few hundred labels to 100's of thousands)
Have us print your UPC labels for you!
Purchasing pre-printed UPC barcode labels makes sense if you need your
labels in a hurry, do not have the time or personnel to print, or do not want to
invest in specialized UPC bar code software and printers. Plus a major factor in scanning success
is determined by the bar codes print quality. Some retailers penalize
consumer goods manufacturers if the barcodes on the product are below UCC standards. Our modern equipment,
quality materials, and quality control standards allows us to produce
labels that exceed the UCC's minimum passing grade for retail UPC bar
code quality.

Book
Publishing and the ISBN
The ISBN (International Standard Book Number) is a unique,
machine-readable number that clearly identifies books, e-books, audio
cassettes, videos, and software. This numbering system has been in use
for over 35 years to help standardize publications worldwide. ISBNs are sold in units of 10, 100,
and 1000; packages start at $275.00 and take about 3 weeks to be
assigned.
Bookland EAN Barcode
The barcodes found on the back of books are called Bookland EAN
or EAN-13 bar code symbols. The EAN barcode is created from the
ISBN for the book. Although the EAN barcode is much like that used for
general retail merchandise, the numbering system used to generate the
bar code for books is different.
NOTE: If you are bar coding a monthly publication, you must use an
International Standard Serial Number (ISSN).
As of January 2007, the ISBN moved from a 10 digit to a 13 digit code
system. The EAN-13 bar code is divided into five parts - each part
separated by a hyphen. It starts with a “978” prefix, followed by a
country identifier, a publisher identifier, a title identifier and
closes with a check digit that validates the number.
Example:
ISBN-10 10 digits: 1234567890 now reads ISBN-13 / EAN: 978-1-234567-89-7
Bookland EAN Add-On Code
An added 5-digit section to the EAN code is often used to designate a
price. If the price is less than $100.00, the number starts with a
number “5” to designate US currency.
Here are a couple examples: Price: $4.95 = 50495 - Price: $249.95 =
24995
The 5 digits can also refer to a publisher's internal data, but
the publisher must use only numbers between 90000 and 98999.
