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.  You can do this by printing a configuration label using the “two key reset” method.  If you
can’t get this label to print, refer to the “Troubleshooting”
section of this manual
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 reports.
The first report indicates the printer model, ROM version, serial number, baud rate, etc. The second report
prints out more detailed 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 further discussion
on how to interpret the configuration label as a diagnostic
tool.

Introduction
The printer must establish communications with a host device which sends the data to be printed. Communications occur in three
basic ways:
• By a cable between the printer and its host terminal using either RS232C or USB protocols
• By means of a Bluetooth short-range radio frequency link
• By means of a wireless LAN (Local Area Network) per 802.11b/g specifications

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 interference 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.
Dual radio equipped P4T units will have a Bluetooth radio FCC
ID “T.B.D.” and 802.11b Compact flash radio  FCC ID “T.B.D.”.
The FCC ID numbers and other regulatory information for both
radios are also located on the serial number label of printers
built for the North American region.
Refer to Appendix D of this manual for more information on
locating the Product Configuration Code.

Model RP4T RFID Encoder
The information in this section is provided for your
convenience only and is subject to change. Go to
h t t p://w w w.e p c g l o b a l i n c .o r g fo r the la te s t E PC
information.
The RP4T printer is equipped with an RFID encoder/reader, which
is integrated into the printer’s printhead assembly.  The RP4T encodes (writes) information on ultra-thin UHF RFID transponders
that are embedded in “smart” labels, tickets, and tags. The printer
encodes the information; verifies proper encoding; and prints bar
codes, graphics, and/or text on the label’s surface.  The RP4T printer
uses Zebra’s extensive set of RFID commends running under ZPL
programming language emulation.
The RFID transponder is sometimes called the RFID tag or an inlay.
The transponder is usually made of an antenna that is bonded to
an integrated circuit (IC) chip. The IC chip contains the RF circuit,
coders, decoders, and memory. If you hold an RFID label up to the
light, you can see the transponder’s antenna, and you can feel a
bump in the label where the IC chip is located.
The RP4T can encode and verify EPC (Electronic Product Code)
Generation 2 Class 1 UHF passive RFID tags, in addition to printing
human readable text and conventional 1 and 2-D barcode information on Zebra supplied RFID thermal transfer media.
EPC is a product numbering standard that can be used to identify
a variety of items by using RFID technology.  EPC Generation 2 tags
offer advantages over other tag types. The tag identification (TID)
memory in a Generation 2 tag includes the chip manufacturer and
model number information, which can be used to identify which
optional features are present on the tag. These optional features
include those for data content and security.
Gen 2 tags typically have a 96-bit EPC identifier, which is different
from the 64-bit identifiers common in early EPC tags. The 96-bit
EPC code links to an online database, providing a secure way of
sharing product-specific information along the supply chain.
Gen 2 tags also support much larger data structures. The size of
user memory available (if any) varies by the model and manufacturer of the tag.

Alien Squiggle

Raflatac Onetenna
Omron Wave
Encoding and printing of an RFID label usually are completed on the
first try, but some failures may occur. If you experience consistent
encoding failures, it may signal a problem with the RFID tags, your
label formats, or with the transponder placement.
If an RFID tag cannot be encoded, “VOID” will be printed on the
label. The printer then attempts to read/encode “n” labels before
the next format is attempted, where “n” is specified by the ZPL
programming language “^RS” command. Acceptable values of “n”
are 1 to 10 and the default is 3. After printing the defined number of
voided RFID labels, printer will go into an error mode. The printer
response to an error is defined by the RFID Setup command and
will allow:
1. No Action (Label format causing the error is dropped)
2. Notification to the Host of the details of the error (Label format
causing the error is dropped).
The user has control of where on the label the VOID is printed.
More information on the “^RS” command may be found in Zebra’s
RFID Programming Guide available on the corporate Web site.
Index
Print quality will be reduced when attempting to print over
the transponder portion of an RFID label.  It is recommended
that RFID label layouts should not allow printing over the
RFID transponder portion of a label.

Preventive Maintenance
Extending Battery Life
• Avoid exposing the battery to direct sunlight or temperatures
over 104 °F (40 °C).
• Always use a Zebra charger designed specifically for LithiumIon batteries.  Use of any other kind of charger may damage
the battery.
Caution • Do not print while an LI72 Single Charger is
plugged into the unit.   Unreliable battery charging can
result.
• Use the correct media for your printing requirements. An authorized Zebra re-seller can help you determine the optimum
media for your application.
• If you print the same text or graphic on every label, consider
using a preprinted label.
• Choose the correct print darkness and print speed for your
media.
• RP4T printers (with the RFID encoder/reader): adjust the encoder settings to use the minimum power required for the
RFID media in use.
• Use software handshaking (XON/XOFF) whenever possible.
• Use the LCD display backlight only when necessary.  Turn it
off whenever it is not needed.
• Remove the battery from the printer if it won’t be used for a day
or more and you’re not performing a maintenance charge.
• Consider purchasing an extra battery.
• Remember that any rechargeable battery will lose its ability
to maintain a charge over time and can be recharged only a

Printing a Configuration Label
To print out a listing of the printer’s current configuration follow
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.
4. The printer will create two reports.  The first report is a basic
functional test of the printer.  It prints a series of interlocking
“X” characters which acts as a test of the printhead elements
and reports on basic features of the printer including memory
installed.
The second report is a detailed list of the printer’s configuration, including any options installed (such as radios) and current status of system settings.
Refer to Figures 18.1 through 18.2 for a sample configuration
label printout.
Performing a Forced Shutdown
It the printer has locked up and is not responding to any operator
inputs or external commands, from either a connected terminal or
a linked LAN, you can perform a forced shutdown.
• If the printer software locks up during normal operation, force
the printer to shut down by pressing and holding the Power
Button for 3 seconds.
• If you try to turn the printer off normally and the software
locks up, the printer will automatically shut itself off after a 10
second delay.
• If you try to turn the printer off and it does not respond, 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 settings.
Communications Diagnostics
If there’s a problem transferring data between a terminal or WLAN,
placing the printer in the Communications Diagnostics Mode (also
referred to as the “DUMP” mode) will allow diagnostic analysis. The
printer will print transmitted data as ASCII characters and their text
representation (or a period “.” if not a printable character) for any
data received from the host terminal or network
“Press FEED key to enter DUMP mode.”
3. Press the FEED key. The printer will print: “Entering DUMP
mode.”
Note • If the FEED key is not pressed within 3 seconds, the
printer will print “DUMP mode not entered” and will resume
normal operation.
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:
1.Turn the printer OFF.
2. Wait 5 seconds.
3. Turn the printer ON.
The printer will resume normal operation.
Calling Technical Support
If the printer fails to print the configuration label, or you encounter
problems not covered in the Troubleshooting Guide, contact Zebra
Technical Support. You will need to supply the following information:
• Model number/type (e.g. P4T, RP4T)
• Unit serial number (14 digit number, including dashes) and
Product Configuration Code (PCC) (15 digit number, including
dashes).  Refer to Appendix D for the location of these numbers.
• Technical support contact information may be found in Appendix D of this manual.
