The LI72 is supplied in two variations: a two-wire version
and a three-wire version per Figure 6. The three-wire version
offers more intelligent charging features and will gradually re-
place the two-wire version.
Both of the LI72 models will charge a battery pack as fast as
its charge level will allow, and then switch over to a mainte-
nance charge to keep the charge at its maximum.
Charging Battery Packs with the LI72 Two-Wire Version
Plug the LI72 into the appropriate A.C. wall receptacle, then
insert the charge cable into the battery pack charger jack.

External Media option has a loading slot in the rear of
the media compartment allowing you to use standard 4
in. (101.6 mm) wide fanfold media from an external sup-
ply. The external supply must be designed such that it
does not exert excessive drag as media is fed through the
printer, which could result in distorted printing.

Verify the Printer Is Working
Before you connect the printer to your computer or portable
data terminal, make sure that the printer is in proper working
order.Youcandothisbyprintingacongurationlabelusing
the “two key reset” method. If you can’t get this label to print,
refer to “Troubleshooting.”
Printing a Configuration Label
1. Turn the printer off. Load the media compartment with
journal media (media with no black bars printed on the
back)
2. Press and hold the Feed Button.
3. Press and release the Power button and keep the Feed
button pressed. When printing starts, release the Feed
button.
The unit will print a line of interlocking “x” characters to
ensure all elements of the printhead are working, print out the
version of software loaded in the printer and then print two re-
ports.
The first report indicates model, ROM version, serial num-
ber, baud rate, etc. The second report prints out more de-
tailed information on the printer’s configuration and parameter
settings. If no second report appears, there is no application
loaded. (See the Troubleshooting Section for a sample print-
out and a further discussion on how to use the configuration
label as a diagnostic tool.)

Wireless Communications
Wireless Communications with Bluetooth®
“Bluetooth” is a worldwide standard for the exchange of
data between two devices via radio frequencies. Bluetooth
radios are relatively low powered to help prevent interfer-
ence with other devices running at similar radio frequencies.
This limits the range of a Bluetooth device to about 10 meters
(about 32 feet).
Both the printer and the device it communicates with must
follow the Bluetooth standard.
Bluetooth Networking Overview
Each Bluetooth enabled RW series printer has a unique
Bluetooth Device Address (BDA) loaded into its radio module
when manufactured.
Bluetooth software is always running in the background,
ready to respond to connection requests. One device (known
as the master or the client) must request a connection with an-
other. The second device (the slave or the server) then accepts
or rejects the connection. A Bluetooth enabled RW series
printer will normally act as a slave creating a miniature net-
work with the terminal sometimes referred to as a “piconet.”
For the most part, communications using Bluetooth are initi-
ated and processed without any operator intervention.
RW 420 printers can be equipped with both a Bluetooth
and an 802.11b radio, allowing communications with both
Bluetooth enabled devices and a Wireless Local Area Network
(WLAN) (see discussion below).
Wireless Local Area Network Overview
RW series printers can be equipped with several radio op-
tions which use the industry standard 802.11 WLAN protocol.
tions port. (Refer to Figure 12)
The RW series is configured with the USB Open HCI inter-
face driver allowing it to communicate with Windows® based
devices. USB drivers are included in the Zebra Universal
Driver which can be downloaded from www.zebra.com. Other
terminals or communications devices may require the instal-
lation of special drivers to use the USB connection. Consult
your Zebra reseller or the factory for further details.

Card Reader Options
The RW series can be equipped with optional Magnetic
Stripe and Smart Card readers. The magnetic stripe card
reader allows the user to swipe magnetic stripe cards such
as credit cards through a slot in the printer and then read and
process the data contained in the card.
In a similar manner the Smart Card reader can read the in-
formation written in the microchip embedded in Smart Cards,
and process the information in the chip in a variety of ways
depending on the printer’s application.
Magnetic Stripe Reader
The status of the Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR) is indicated
in three possible ways:
• ReaderstatusisdisplayedontheMainMenuLCDas
shown in Figure 15.
• TheLCDbacklightashestoindicatestatus(3ashes=

The MSR is used as follows:
1. When the reader is enabled, place the card into the read-
er slot as shown. The magnetic stripe (typically on the
back of the card) must face the bottom of the printer, and
be inserted into the bottom of the card reader slot as
shown in Figure 16.
2. Slide the card through the slot. The card will be read
if slid in either direction. Depending on the application
software, the printer will sound one chime when a scan is
successful .
3. If the card did not read, slide it back through the slot in
the opposite direction.

The optional Smart Card reader is used as follows:
1. The LCD will display “RDR” to indicate the Smart Card
reader is active. (Some reader applications may flash the
displaybacklightand/orchimethreetimestoindicatethe
reader status is “ready.”) At this time, the printer is acting
only as a Smart Card reader connected to the host termi-
nal; all other printer functions are suspended.
2. Insert the card into the reader slot as shown in Figure 17.
The microchip imbedded in the card must be oriented
facing the bottom of the printer and must be completely
inserted into the Reader Slot to scan successfully .
3. Depending on the application software, the printer will
sound a chime after a successful transaction.
4. After the card has been successfully read the printer can
resume normal printing operations and the Smart Card
can be removed.

Cradles
RW 420 Vehicle Cradle
The RW 420 can be used in conjunction with a docking
Cradle. When the printer is “docked” the Cradle will charge
the printer’s battery and allow the printer to print, receive and
transmit data as usual. The Cradle can provide power from
a 12 VDC power supply either from a power take-off point in
a vehicle or from an external power supply running off A.C.
power. Refer to the documentation supplied with the Cradle
for more information.
The RW 420 has software features which can automatical-
ly rotate the four display lines on the control panel 180º when
the printer is docked. This allows for easier reading of the dis-
play when the Cradle is mounted vertically. Refer to Figure
20.
This rotation feature is also available on the RW 220, but the
command to rotate the display lines must be sent to the RW
220 when it is docked; it will not rotate the display text auto-
matically.

Troubleshooting Techniques
Printing a Configuration Label
To print out a listing of the printer’s current configuration fol-
low these steps:
1. Turn the printer off. Load the media compartment with
journal media (media with no black bars printed on the
back)
2. Press and hold the Feed Button.
3. Press and release the Power button and keep the Feed
button pressed. When printing starts, release the Feed
button.
Refer to Figures 26 through 26b for a sample configura-
tion printout.
Performing a Forced Shutdown
It the printer has locked up and is not responding to any op-
erator inputs or external commands, from either a connected
terminal or a linked LAN, you can perform a forced shutdown.
•Iftheprintersoftwarelocksupduringnormaloperation,
force the printer to shut down by pressing and holding
the Power Button for 3 seconds.
•Ifyoutrytoturntheprinteroffnormallyandthesoft-
ware locks up, the printer will automatically shut itself off
after a 10 second delay.
•Ifyoutrytoturntheprinteroffanditdoesnotrespond,
you can force an immediate shut down by pressing and
holding the Power Button again within 10 seconds.
A forced shutdown will preserve the printer’s data and set-
tings.
Communications Diagnostics
If there’s a problem transferring data between the computer
and the printer, try putting the printer in the Communications
Diagnostics Mode (also referred to as the “DUMP” mode). The
printer will print the ASCII characters and their and their text
representation (or the period ‘.’, if not a printable character) for
any data received from the host computer
To enter Communications Diagnostics Mode:
1. Print a configuration label as described above.
2. At the end of 2nd diagnostics report, the printer will print:
continued
60

4. At this point, the printer is in DUMP mode and will print
the ASCII hex codes of any data sent to it, and their text
representation (or “.” if not a printable character).
Additionally, a file with a “.dmp” extension containing the
ASCII information will be created and stored in the printer’s
memory. It can be viewed, “cloned” or deleted using the Label
Vista application. (Refer the Label Vista documentation for
more information.)
To terminate the Communications Diagnostics Mode and re-
turn the printer to normal operations:
1. Turn the printer OFF.
2. Wait 5 seconds.
3. Turn the printer ON.
