SmartLine RFID PRINTER ADVANTAGE

A solid, reliable smart label printer is the foundation of any RFID system. Printronix adds 30 years of know-how in providing tough industrial printers that endure the harshest environments (e.g., paper mills and loading docks) where dust, dirt and temperature extremes stop ordinary printers. Only rugged, heavy-duty SmartLine RFID printers offer all these advantages:

WIRELESS RFID PRINTING

Today’s just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing and logistics environments require advanced printers that can perform where and when they are needed. Although wireless LAN technology provides a viable solution, it also increases the need for true printer management to ensure consistency and diagnostic control.

➔915MHz UHF EPC-compliant 4" thermal printers.

➔Wide range of smart label sizes Includes 4x2, 4x4, 4x6, 4x8 and 3x3 with various antenna configurations.

➔Multi-protocol (MP)* configuration Supports EPC Class 0, 0+, and 1 standards.

➔Class 1 (C1) configuration Optimized for EPC Class 1 standard.

➔Aluminum die-cast design Dampens vibration and main- tains precise printer alignment.

➔ Unique dual-motor-driven ribbon

system Uses a revolutionary

motor-driven ribbon system that

eliminates clutch replacement

and greatly reduces the risk of

ribbon wrinkle for superior print

quality.

➔ Cantilever head mechanism

design Makes it easy to sideload,

clean and maintain.

➔ Exclusive snap-in printhead

Allows operators to easily

change print heads (reducing

service calls) and change from

203dpi to 300dpi printing without

firmware or software changes.

➔ Wireless/Ethernet option

Provides real-time data

access and local printing

flexibility.

➔ AutoPort switching Allows printers

to accept and print jobs from one to

three input ports without manual

intervention.

➔ Optional GPIO external

interface Offers greater flexibility

in controlling external devices like

applicators.

➔ Larger ribbon capacity Uses 625m

ribbons to make unattended print-

ing more efficient. Operators can

run four full rolls of media without

Printronix SmartLine Mobile Print System (MPS) addresses this need. Combined with our RFID printer, MPS delivers smart labels directly to locations that need it the most. Its ergonomic design, durable steel frame and heavy-duty wheels combine maximum maneuverability with minimal maintenance to offer these benefits:

➔ Reduced centralized printing and manual distribution	➔ Centralized control, consistency and diagnostics
by printing smart labels on the spot	previously available only in hard-cabled managed
➔ Scalable deployment for maximum printing flexibility	systems
at compliance locations	➔ Optimized cost efficiency and productivity
➔ Elimination of expensive, time-consuming, hard-cabled	➔ Higher return on investment (ROI) due to accelerated
system reconfigurations when changeovers occur	data and inventory movement

PrintNet ENTERPRISE

PrintNet® Enterprise is the only system that lets you manage all your print operations—whether it’s a single warehouse or a global infra- structure—from one computer. This advanced Web-based management tool combines a fully integrated Ethernet adapter and Java-based remote management software to deliver unparalleled remote printer management adaptability, remote diagnostics and help desk tools.

It supports SNMP, which allows you to use SNMP managers like HP Open View, Tivoli, Computer Associates Unicenter TNG, Sun Net Manager and Castle Rock SNMPc.

*Class 0 and 0+ support will be available via a software upgrade. Please contact Printronix or a Printronix Certified RFID Integrator for availability.

changing the ribbon. This 4:1 ratio

is the highest in the industry.

With PrintNet Enterprise you get:

➔Instant RFID printer status, which indicates which printers are in use or idle and which need consumables or repairs

➔Instant alerts, which notify you via e-mail (or routed to

your pager or cell phone) if an RFID printer situation requires immediate action

➔Instant control, which allows you to remotely change printer settings, update firmware, download fonts and lockout local operators from making changes

➔Instant RFID printer organization, which enables you to configure printers from a single action

➔Instant diagnostics, which remotely diagnoses printer problems via a Web browser

RFID PRINT AND APPLY

The SLPA™ 7000 is a smart label printer-applicator solution that encodes, prints and applies—all in one unit. Combining RFID smart label printing technology with applicator capability, this RFID smart label solution delivers fast, accurate, cost-effective encoding and printing to users with site-specific requirements.

➔Enables supply chain operations using encode, print-and- apply label applicators to automate the application of RFID smart labels

➔A fully integrated RFID printer and applicator is designed for heavy industry environments

➔Supported orientations include top and side label application and roll-on/front/back applications

➔Built-in quality control features identify and reject “bad” or “quiet” labels—ensure 100% high-performance RFID smart labels every time

➔Supports multiple label sizes providing flexibility to address different application requirements—reducing the total quantity of print-and-apply label applicators required
