Product Positioning
The PM4i is a mid-range 4-inch printer – a direct thermal and thermal transfer Intermec Performance Printer™ with superior throughput, smart printing technology, 8 IPS print speed, and your choice of 203 or 300 DPI resolution. Standard interfaces include serial, USB, and EasyLAN™ Ethernet with EasyLAN™ Wireless optional.
The PM4i features a rugged metal chassis and durable mechanical design that ensures dependable service even in harsh environments, while enabling easy access for routine maintenance, media handling and print-head replacement.
The PM4i is an ideal and easy replacement for the market-leading Intermec 3400 model printer (now discontinued) – it can easily adapt its printer command language so that no changes to current host programming or label formats are required when upgrading. Customers seeking a high-performance four-inch printer may wish to consider the PX4i. For a comparable printer with a compact footprint, consider the PF series printers (PF2i, PF4i, PF4ci). Customers seeking a more economical solution may prefer the PD41 or PD42.

Value Proposition
Our most popular mid-range printer, the rugged PM4i is a smart, fast and network-ready industrial printer designed to excel in demanding applications and environments. The PM4i offers advanced, secure network connectivity, including optional integrated Ethernet, and provides five interface ports that can be utilized at once. The PM4i delivers productivity benefits through its superior print speed and throughput, as well as through its wireless flexibility, enabling it to be moved to new locations as demands change.
The PM4i printer acts as a "smart client" executing user-defined programs. This means your PM4i printer eliminates the personal computer, operates additional hardware (e.g. scanners, other printers, conveyors), accesses information from the network host, and retains the ability to change as needed with the application for additional functionality. When using the EasyLAN™ Wireless option for the PM4i, any attached peripheral devices also become part of the wireless infrastructure.
It is also available in an RFID configuration as the PM4i RFID Printer.
Competitive Comparisons
For the most basic printing applications, many of the mid-range printers on the market will appear comparable at first glance. Where Intermec printers such as the PM4i particularly excel is in the ability to withstand harsh environments, easily integrate into complex systems, and easily manage complex printing applications. In particular, Intermec can boast long experience with smart printing, dating back to the early '90s – far longer than competitors. This heritage is readily evident in the ease of use and the powerful capabilities of Intermec smart printing, which eliminates the need for a host PC.

Product Overview
Are you looking for more efficient processes, reduced costs, and increased production?
The PM4i is an industrial printer designed to excel in demanding applications and environments. Utilizing the latest technology, the PM4i features a strong and proven mechanical platform, and powerful newly developed electronics.
The PM4i printer acts as a "smart client" executing user-defined programs. This means your PM4i printer eliminates the personal computer, operates additional hardware (e.g. scanners, other printers, conveyors), accesses information from network host, and retains the ability to change as needed with the application for additional functionality. When using the wireless option for the PM4i, any attached peripheral devices also become part of the wireless infrastructure.
Printer command languages do not restrict the PM4i bar code label printer. The printer can be changed to understand and replace competitive and older Intermec printers without requiring any changes to the host programming or label formats that are currently being used.
The PM4i includes integrated wired or wireless networking. The wireless interface uses an integrated standard 802.11b radio. This radio provides 128-bit WEP encryption of the information relayed through the network. Intermec’s wired and wireless technology ensures secure printing and network infrastructure for all environments.
This is an extremely versatile bar code label printer. There are up to five interface ports that can be used simultaneously. The PM4i includes serial, parallel, USB, internal ethernet, and wireless. The magnetic QuickMount printhead eliminates hassles and the need to call a service technician. The printhead is replaced quickly and easily with the magnet and u-brackets ensuring proper alignment. The double-clutching ribbon mechanism means that you are no longer restricted to ribbon types based on how they are wound. The handy, inexpensive and PC-compatible Compact Flash memory technology provides quick and easy upgrades of firmware, fonts and memory.
The PM4i printer is exceptionally fast in throughput and printing, reliable, and delivers very high print quality.
