Wireless Local Area Network Overview

RW 420 printers can be equipped with several radio options which use the industry standard 802.11b protocol.

• RW 420 printers with a Compact Flash (CF) radio module can be identified by the FCC ID number “I28MD-RW4137” and other regulatory information on the serial number label on the back of the unit.

Printers so equipped allow wireless communication as a node within a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and its wireless capabilities allow communications from any point within the WLAN’s perimeter.

Methods of establishing communications to RW 420 printers will vary with each WLAN application. General information on establishing WLAN communications can be found in either the “Mobile Printing Systems CPCL Programming Manual” or the “Quick Start Guide for Mobile Wireless Printers.” Both documents are available on-line at: http://www.zebra.com/manuals

More information and WLAN configuration utilities may also be found in Zebra’s Label Vista™ program (version 2.8 and later). Label Vista may be downloaded from the Zebra Web site at: http://www.zebra.com/SD/product _ LabelVista.htm

Setting Up the Software

RW 420 printers use Zebra’s CPCL Programming language which was designed for mobile printing applications. CPCL is fully described in the ”Mobile Printing Systems CPCL Programming Manual”, available on-line from Zebra’s Web site at:
