Solve : unix and zebra?

Answer»

HOW CAN I INSTALL A ZEBRA PRINTER INTO UNIX AND WHERE CAN I FIND THE DRIVERS .. IT'S ZEBRA 170 XiIIhttp://www.zebra.com will have a downloads section.

A search on GOOGLE gave a few sites. The first was http://www.eiminc.com/support/faqcontent.htm and point #15 says.. Quote

15. I would like to print from a Unix system to a Zebra or Eltron printer using an IP address. What do I do?

You can print by using either the Zebra PrintServer II or the Eltron PrintServer. The electronic manuals have instructions for working with Unix.

Page 42 on Zebra Printserver II: http://www.zebra.com/SS/manuals.htm

Page 15 on Eltron Printserver: http://ftp://ftp.eltron.com/eltron/manuals/46716LA%20Eltron%20PrintServer.pdf


Other options listed by Google include software packages. Once you get the printer installed, you can create your own labels pretty easilly. SAMPLE code is..

Code: [Select]'^XA'
'^LH0,0'
'^FWn^FO10,20^AS^FD' & LOC:OrdLotBin & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO400,20^AS^FD' & LOC:Size & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO10,65^AS^FD' & LOC:Model & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO10,110^AS^FDSpacer: ' & LOC:SpacerType & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO300,110^AS^FDPos: ' & LOC:Position & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO440,110^AS^FDArgon: ' & LOC:Argon & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO600,110^AS^FDGrids: ' & LOC:Grids & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO10,150^AS^FDLite One: ' & LOC:PassOne & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO10,190^AS^FDLite Two: ' & LOC:PassTwo & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO10,230^AS^FDLite Three: ' & LOC:PassThree & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO10,270^AS^FDUser: ' & LOC:User & '^FS'
'^FWn^FO400,270^AS^FDTime: ' & LOC:TimeStamp & '^FS'
'^XZ'

All the LOC:FOO are variables I pass at the TIME of printing. Each ^FOO is a specific command given to the printer to perform a task such as set FONT size or whatever.

Hope this helps.
