RTC and Full Flash Memory Option

Printers with the factory installed RTC (Real Time Clock) and Full Flash Memory option allow you to create highly customizable printer applications, improve printer productivity and flexibility, and provide extra memory to store more forms, graphics (logos), fonts, and the large Asian font sets.

The RTC allows the label form developer to include:

Time Date Stamping

Pre or Post Dating

Allows Date/Time date to be included on printed form without altering the form

Provide dates and times without needing to generate them with the host system, application software or programmatically by another process (e.g. a database report).

The RTC enhances the printer’s ability to operate in a stand-alone configuration (e.g. not connected to a host or PC). A common use would be to provide a date stamp to a tag, ticket, label or receipt printed on demand. See Stand Alone Printing on page 43 for more details.

The RTC feature supports both ZPL and EPL printer programming. The two programming behaviors that display the time and date are independent of each other. The commands that set time and date change them for both printer languages.

Caution • The optional RTC assembly has a three volt lithium battery. You can discern a low or flat battery if the printer provides a consistently delayed date stamp. Battery replacement must be performed by a qualified service technician. Only use a Zebra approved replacement battery.

Important • Recycle batteries according to local your guidelines and regulations. Wrap the battery when disposing (or storing) to avoid a short circuit.

DO NOT short circuit the battery. Short circuiting the battery may result in heat generation, fire or bursting.

DO NOT heat, disassemble or dispose of battery in fire.

The Full Flash Memory provides an additional 64 Megabytes to the printer’s standard

4 Megabytes of printer memory for a total of 68 Megabytes printer memory. This option originally supported only 12MB of Full Flash Memory for printer built prior to July 24, 2009.
