Hello,
I use this code to send character to a THERMAL PRINTER (Zebra ZPL) connected to LPT port
How to to if it is a network printer ?
nfp := fcreate("LPT1")
*
ww:="^XA" && tjs
fwrite(nfp,ww+CRLF)
ww:="^MD25" && temperature 0 a 30
fwrite(nfp,ww+CRLF)
ww:="^LH05,50" && home position 0.5 cm
fwrite(nfp,ww+CRLF)
ww:="^XZ"
fwrite(nfp,ww+CRLF)
fclose(nfp)
Hi Jack,
I am printing direct to Zebra and Intermec printers using the following code. The text in aLabel is the Intermec coding, you can change to Zebra's ZPL.
// Init...
nPort := 9100
cIPAddr := "192.168.1.125"
aLabel := {}
cDat := ""
// Init...
AADD( aLabel, 'CLL' )
AADD( aLabel, 'FONT "Swiss 721 BT",20' )
AADD( aLabel, 'DIR 1' )

FOR nX1=1 TO LEN(aLabel)
cDat += aLabel[nX1] + CRLF
NEXT nX1
FWRITE( hHan, cDat )
SENDDATA( nPort, cIPAddr, cDat )
RETURN (.T.)
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
STATIC FUNCTION SENDDATA( nPort, cIP, cMsg )
LOCAL oSocket := TSocket():New( nPort )
oSocket:bConnect := { || oSocket:SendData( "MSG " + cMsg ),;
oSocket:End() }
oSocket:Connect( cIP )
RETURN NIL
Thanks,
It works with my network printer .
Is it the same if the printer is connect to a print server ??
I replace the IP with the print server name ?
Thanks .
I am also interested in this answer
