1. P4T™ and RP4T™ Mobile Printer An introduction to the Thermal Transfer and RFID mobile
{Name}
{Company name}

2. The Zebra P4T/RP4T
The P4T and RP4T are radical new additions to the Zebra mobile printer portfolio; broadening the application base into which mobile printing solutions can be implemented.

3. Introducing the P4T/RP4T
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:
The P4T and RP4T are sister products. They have the same appearance and ergonomics and share the same internal architecture and design specification.
The fundamental difference between the two is that the RP4T is shipped with a built in UHF RFID encoder, while the P4T is RFID upgradable at a later date should such technology be required in the future.
With a thermal-transfer printhead, Zebra mobile printing solutions can once again be incorporated in demanding outdoor labelling applications where longevity of label life is paramount. The RFID element further expands the markets into which this product can be sold.
Mobile RFID printing is a genuine world first by Zebra Technologies.
P4T – thermal-transfer mobile printer
RP4T – thermal-transfer mobile printer with RFID encoder
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
Why did we develop the P4T and 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.

5. Introducing the P4T/RP4T
Why might my customer need one…?
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.
