Hello
I am kind a beginner here and i need ur precious Help ... because i have a bit of a problem !!! I can't read a tag, neither write with my zebra ZT410 .
I proceeded first with a Media calibration as i have 4"x6" Label ... it went well ... and because the Ribbon havent arrived yet I sort of configured the printer with Direct Thermal config  ... for not having the Ribbon error warning.
After that, i did an RFID Calibration ... which btw take a lot of time ... and that didn't wotk !!!! It tells me that RFID Status is OK ... but when i go for read or write ... it tells me NO TAG FOUND ... it's been 2 days that it bugs me ... i really dont understand ... please help !!!!

Hello,

So, I would like to know if there is a solution to my problem which is encoding without feed or printing ... is there another printer which include the ZPL commands that are recommended by the ZPL Programming Guide for disabling the feed (^RM , and ^WT commands) ?? ... because in my case (like Robin said) unfortunately those are not supported by my ZT410 RFID printer ... and if there is, could you give me an advice for which one i should choose ?

Or why not just include, in the ZT410 Firmware those methods (^RM , and ^WT commands) with a new version of the firmware... which btw existed in the previous version of the printer (the RZ400) ... and unfortunately were suppressed for ZT410 printer and never added even in the last firmware V75.19.15Z ?

Thanks.

Thx for ur help ... but i finally understood how calibration works !!!!
Now, I have another problem with my ZT410 ... i'm writing my own ZPL code ... and i want to encode a 4'x6' tag with ZT410 without a feed after !!!
what i have now is zpl code doing B26 BACKFEED, writing the EPC and after feeding the Tag ... i want to do the same thing but without the feeding part ... just backfeed and encode !!!
How can i do it ?? if u have any idea please ...

I also tried the command ^RM – Enable RFID Motion which allows to inhibit the label from moving when it reaches the program position ... but apparently its not supported by my ZT410 RFID printers ... and doesn't work in it ....also tried ^WT command without success ... if u have any idea please HELP ...

Also i got the same problem with the reading method ^RFR ... i just want to backfeed, read and return the EPC ... without the feeding part after !!!!

Hi Yassine,
Are you trying to encode tags without printing or feeding at all?

Hello Yassine,

Could you please explain how you are trying to write to your tag?

Are you sending your own ZPL or are you using an application?
