The document introduces the Zebra P4T and RP4T mobile printers. The P4T is a thermal transfer mobile printer with an upgrade path to RFID, while the RP4T includes an RFID encoder. They were developed for niche applications requiring thermal transfer printing or mobile RFID in outdoor environments. The printers have features like a shoulder strap, battery management, and ruggedized design to withstand outdoor conditions.

- 1. P4T ™ and RP4T ™ Mobile Printer An introduction to the Thermal Transfer and RFID mobile Stefano Giannerini KFI Trading Srl
- 3. Introducing the P4T/RP4T P4T – thermal-transfer mobile printer RP4T – thermal-transfer mobile printer with RFID encoder The P4T/RP4T is a thermal-transfer mobile printer with UHF RFID printing/encoding capability. A world first…! It re-introduces a thermal transfer mobile printer to the portfolio, and reinforces Zebra’s position as a technology leader/pioneer. It is the first of Zebra’s ‘Intelligent Mobile Printers’ with smart end user features. There are two primary models: Note: The P4T has an RFID upgrade path should a customer have a future need for RFID encoding. The RP4T ships with an RFID encoder pre-installed.
- 4. Introducing the P4T/RP4T Niche applications that require thermal-transfer printing in a mobile platform. This need was previously fulfilled by the PT400, which was discontinued in 2005 due to supplier RoHS issues. We foresee significant opportunities for thermal-transfer mobile printing in niche applications. The nature of these applications has synergy with RFID either now or in the near future. Why did we develop the P4T and RP4T…?
- 5. Introducing the P4T/RP4T Thermal-transfer printing allows for the production of long lasting and highly durable printed output for use in extreme weather conditions and temperatures. Mobile RFID removes the fixed constraints of RFID technology, allowing for the technology to be used in outdoor environments where tagging is still required. Why might my customer need one…?
