The iK4R is a 4-inch industrial RFID label printer designed for manufacturing, warehousing, logistics and asset management. It supports 203/300/600 dpi resolution and combines thermal transfer and direct thermal barcode printing with UHF RFID encoding.
Integrated UHF RFID Encoding
Supports GS1 EPC Gen2 v2/ISO 18000-63 protocol with a built-in fixed antenna, compatible with standard and on-metal tags; min. pitch 15 mm for standard tags and 20 mm for anti-metal tags, supporting anti-metal tags up to 1.25 mm thick.
Triple Resolution, High-Precision Output
Selectable 203 dpi, 300 dpi and 600 dpi; 600 dpi delivers sharp barcodes and fine text.
Industrial Print Speed
Up to 14 ips at 203 dpi, 10 ips at 300 dpi and 6 ips at 600 dpi for high-volume label production.
Dual-Mode Printing
Supports both direct thermal and thermal transfer printing for diverse media needs.
5" Color Touch Display
5" color touchscreen with 3 operation buttons and 5 tri-color LEDs for intuitive operation.
Versatile Connectivity
Standard RS232, USB-B, USB Host, Bluetooth 5.2/LE and Ethernet 10/100Base-T; optional Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Parallel and GPIO for diverse industrial deployments.
