Fareham, United Kingdom, August 23, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Following the initial launch in January 2006 by Fontware™, BarSTORM has grown to become one of the industry leaders. The proof that BarSTORM is so successful is that it is currently providing barcode solutions for companies all around the world in a number of different industries including Financial Institutions, Local and Central Governments, Manufacturing & Utilities.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with BarSTORM, it is a unique multi-port print server & network bridge with “BarDIMM Inside” technology, enabling auto barcode printing on standard laser printers and multi-function devices. The unit removes the need for specialist barcode printers & also has flash memory on board for additional data storage. BarSTORM was developed in order to allow barcode printing on ANY PCL5 printer or multi-function device. One of the things that makes BarSTORM stand out is that it also allows the “BarDIMM™ Inside” technology to be used by customers who have a mixture of various manufacturers devices as an enterprise wide solution.

Fontware are now looking to expand upon BarSTORM’s market share by targeting healthcare organisations such as the NHS in the UK. Andy Banes CEO for Fontware explains, "Hospitals are increasingly turning to barcodes, as, with their responsibility for patient care, they want to ensure the highest levels of data accuracy & also with increasing commercial pressures, they want to speed-up the rate of data input & transfer. Thus barcodes are now being printed on everything from patient records to blood bags & from crutches to new born babies.

Also the new generation of 2D barcodes are starting to be used in healthcare applications, as they can store hundreds of times more data than a traditional barcode, acting in effect like a mini database, which can contain a persons medical records, all available from a quick scan from a barcode reader."

BarSTORM is available from various distributors around the world as well as at www.fontware.com/barstorm
