Near Field Communication (NFC)

The printer supports a passive NFC tag which complies with the Android Standard Tag format. The NFC tag is programmed from the factory and supports Bluetooth pairing to enable a tablet, smartphone, or mobile computer to automatically pair with the printer via a Bluetooth connection (within the bounds of the security profile being used).

The NFC tag also supports app launching whereby an app developed either by Zebra or a third party launches on an NFC-enabled smartphone, tablet, or mobile computer. Similarly, the NFC tag enables launching to a web support page via a tablet, smartphone, or mobile computer. See Using Near Field Communication (NFC).

Tapping the Zebra Print Touch icon with an NFC-enabled mobile device provides instant access to printer-specific information. For more information about NFC and Zebra products, go to zebra.com/nfc. Bluetooth pairing applications via NFC is also possible. See Link-OS Multiplatform SDK for more information.
