Zebra R4M Plus RFID Printer

We've got you covered with Zebra's innovative, easy-to-use R4Mplus. The newest member of Zebra's RFID printer line encodes information on ultra-thin UHF RFID transponders embedded in smart labels. It then immediately verifies proper encoding, and prints barcodes, graphics, and/or text on the smart label's surface. Reliable, Smart Performance in Tough Applications. With its rugged die-cast metal enclosure, the R4Mplus performs dependably in harsh environments such as warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing plants. Its durability, along with the data accuracy and tracking efficiency provided by its RFID capabilities, make the R4Mplus ideal for a variety of applications.
