P4T™ and RP4T™ Mobile Printer
An introduction to the Thermal Transfer and RFID mobile
{Name}
{Company name}
The Zebra P4T/RP4T
Introducing the P4T/RP4T
The P4T/RP4T is a thermal-transfer mobile printer with UHF RFID printing/encoding capability. A world first…!
It re-introduces a thermal transfer mobile printer to the portfolio, and reinforces
Zebra’s position as a technology leader/pioneer.
It is the first of Zebra’s ‘Intelligent Mobile Printers’ with smart end user features.
There are two primary models:
• P4T – thermal-transfer mobile printer
• RP4T – thermal-transfer mobile printer with RFID encoder
Note: The P4T has an RFID upgrade path should a customer have a future need for RFID encoding. The RP4T ships with an RFID encoder pre-installed.
Introducing the P4T/RP4T
Why did we develop the P4T and RP4T…?
• Niche applications that require thermal-transfer printing ina mobile platform.
• This need was previously fulfilled by the PT400, whichwas discontinued in 2005 due to supplier RoHS issues.
• We foresee significant opportunities for thermal-transfer mobile printing in niche applications.
• The nature of these applications has synergy with RFIDeither now or in the near future.
Introducing the P4T/RP4T
Why might my customer need one…?
• Thermal-transfer printing allows for the production of long lasting and highly durable printed output for use in extreme weather conditions and temperatures.
• Mobile RFID removes the fixed constraints of RFID technology, allowing for the technology to be used in outdoor environments where tagging is still required.
