Hello!
Thank you for choosing a Zebra
®
R2844-Z™ printer, a high-quality
on-demand printer with RFID (radio-frequency identification) capability
manufactured by the industry leader in quality, service, and value—Zebra
Technologies Corporation. For over 25 years, Zebra Technologies
Corporation has provided customers with the highest caliber of products
and support.
Your R2844-Z printer provides thermal-transfer printing (which uses
ribbon) and direct-thermal printing.
This manual provides all of the information you will need to operate your
printer on a daily basis. To create label formats, refer to the RFID-specific
ZPL II commands in this guide and the ZPL II Programming Guide. The
programming guide is available by contacting your distributor or Zebra
Technologies Corporation.
NOTE • Many printer settings may also be controlled by your printer’s driver or label
preparation software. Refer to the driver or software documentation for more
information.
Your printer, when connected to a host computer, functions as a complete
system for printing labels and tags, especially those with RFID applications.
