This is my first try to create a c# script to print a label from a Zebra s600 printen. I have a really hard time finding a good guide on the internet about how this would work. The Zebra s600 is also a very old model. Right now I am using the SDK from Zebra:
But I found out that the s600 is not included in the support list. My script does activated a little greenlight on the printer the moment I run the script. But nothing else happens. I also have no idea how to search further for my issue. Every search is a dead end.
I did followed this tutorial because I could't find any example on the web:
Seems like it still supports ZPL. Have you tried sending ~WC
? Try opening a command prompt and doing echo ~WC > LPT1
or echo ~WC > COM1
.
If that prints a config label, then you can either use the ZDesigner drivers to print to it as a normal windows printer. If you do not find a driver for the exact model of printer, just select one with the same DPI and PDL.
Or you can write ZPL directly to the printer. To figure out what ZPL to send, you can use ZebraDesigner. The free versions are sufficient. Avoid the XML functionality unless you find the printer to support it - it was introduced after that series, I think.
