Calibrating the Printronix T4000: A Comprehensive Guide

RFID experts Colynn Black and Chris Brown showcase the Printronix T4000 thermal transfer printer, designed for mid-volume applications of up to 5,000 labels per day. This compact yet durable printer supports both standard and on-metal tags, making it ideal for enterprise environments with limited space.

Chris walks through the setup process, starting with loading media through the bi-fold door and feeding the ribbon. He emphasizes using the media guides and opening the front door for easier loading, especially for on-metal tags. Once the media and ribbon are in place, the printer is powered on for calibration.

The process includes two steps: standard media calibration to detect label dimensions and RFID auto-calibration, which is initiated via the printer’s RFID wizard.
