4.10 RFID MODULE (B-9704-RFID-U1-US/EU/EU-R)
NOTES:
1. An RFID tag chip or the print head may be damaged when the print head passes over the chip.
This can be prevented by using the ribbon saving module (standard feature for the B-SX5T and optional for
the B-SX4T). The print head is lifted by the ribbon saving module when it passes over the chip to prevent it
from touching the chip. The print head is lifted by approximately 1 mm from the platen.
2. When an RFID label or tag is used in cut issue mode, care must be taken not to cut an antenna of the RFID
tag or an IC chip in order not to damage the cutter.
3. When using the RFID module together with a cutter or strip module, be sure to install the RFID module first.
When the B-4205-QM swing cutter has been installed, remove the cutter unit before installing the RFID
module.
When the B-8204-QM rotary cutter has been installed, remove the cutter unit and cutter drive unit before
installing the RFID module.
When the B-9904-H-QM strip module has been installed, remove the rewinder guide plate and strip sensors
(Tr and LED) before installing the RFID module. (The strip module is standard feature of the B-SX5T series.)
