Unpacking And Installing The Printer

NOTE: This Quick Setup Guide covers both the SL5000r and

T5000r printers.

The SL5000r is a smart label printer: it is equipped with an RFID encoder and has the “RFID Smart” logo near the control panel.

The 4 and 6 inch T5000r printers do not come equipped with RFID encoders, but are field upgradable to SL5000r printers.

The 8 inch T5000r printer is currently not RFID compatible.

Unpacking The Printer

The printer is shipped in a carton and protective bag. Keep all packing material in case shipping is required.

CAUTION Avoid touching the electrical connectors to prevent electrostatic discharge damage while setting up the printer. The discharge of accumulated electrostatic energy can damage or destroy the printhead or electronic components used in this device.

CAUTION Do not place the printer on its backside during unpacking or handling, because damage to the printer interface connector may occur.
