Printronix SmartLine SL5000r Features and Benefits

SCALABLE
The SL5000r family of RFID printers offer multi-protocol capabilities that support EPCglobal Class 0, 0+, 1, Gen 2* and Philips 1.19 standards and global frequency requirements.

INNOVATIVE
The widest range of thermal printer emulations allows for easy consolidation of multiple thermal printer brands reducing maintenance costs and configuration time.

BEST-OF-BREED
PowerPC controller and new high-performance 5r driver deliver industry-leading throughput for more efficient applications.

BUILT FOR CHANGE
The SL5000r RFID printers are compatible with EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2* smart labels via a free firmware update.

SMART
All SL5000r printers feature intelligent RFID tag management that identifies and overstrikes substandard RFID smart labels preventing them from entering your supply chain.

Additional Features

Integrated RFID UHF encoder meets global frequency standards

Smart Label encoding, validation and overstrike capability

Intelligent media detection saves expensive RFID smart labels by flashing a warning when RFID media is present but no RFID command is in the data stream

PGL, ZPL™ and SATO RFID programming language support

Unique dual motor ribbon system eliminates clutch replacement and ribbon wrinkle

Snap-in print head allows operator to easily replace print heads and change from 203 dpi to 300 dpi printing without firmware or software changes

Wireless/Ethernet option provides real-time data access and local printing flexibility

Online Data Validation option offers a complete bar code/RFID compliant solution

Printronix PrintNet Enterprise option provides instantaneous visibility to every network printer and allows simultaneous configuration and management of an unlimited number of Printronix printers
