Introduction to the P4T Series

Thank you for choosing one of our Zebra P4T Series Mobile Print- ers. The P4T Series consists of two models. The P4T can print on direct thermal or thermal transfer media. The RP4T can print on direct or thermal transfer media and also encode special RFID media.

Because these printers are made by Zebra Technologies, you’re assured of world-class support for all of your bar code printers, software, and supplies.

This User’s Guide gives you the information you’ll need to operate and maintain both the P4T and RP4T models.

P4T Series printers use the CPCL programming language. To create and print receipts and labels using the CPCL language, refer to our Label Vista™ label creation program or the Mobile Printing Systems CPCL Programming Manual which are both available on our Web site at: www.zebra.com/manuals .

P4T Series printer software also includes interpreters for the ZPL II® programming language (up to Version 30.8.4). Manuals for the ZPL label design programming language are also avail- able on our Web site. Refer to Appendix “F” of this manual for more information on accessing and downloading manuals and other user information.

Always refer to the Important Safety Information data sheet shipped with each printer and the Technical Bulletin shipped with each battery pack. These documents detail procedures to ensure maximum reliability and safety while using this printer.

In case return shipping is required, save the carton and all pack- ing material.

Reporting Damage
