Zebra Print Touch for Near-Field Communication (NFC)

The Zebra Print Touch feature allows you to touch an Android-based, Near Field Communication (NFC)-enabled device such as a smart phone or tablet to the printer’s Print Touch logo to pair the device to the printer.
Zebra Print Touch is available on Zebra printer models with factory-installed networking (Wi-Fi, wired Ethernet, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Power). The Print Touch feature allows you to use your mobile device to provide information for which you are prompted and then print a label using that information.

Some mobile devices may not support NFC communication with the printer until you configure the required NFC settings in your device. If you encounter difficulties, consult your service provider or your smart device manufacturer for more information.
