Honeywell RP4F Printer

Refer to the RP2f/RP4f Mobile Printer User Guide for additional information. The RP4f is a direct replacement for earlier obsolete models RP4d and RP4e.

When pairing a Talkman device with a printer, the Talkman device is the initiator ((or may also be referred to as the host). The Talkman device initiates the connection to the printer and, if disconnected, the Talkman device manages the reconnection. The printer is the acceptor. This may also be referred to as VoiceConsole pairing.
