Font Problem: Zebra label print

Hi,
I'm designing label print with Zebra Z4MPlus, I can rotate the text in 90 degree, but the problem is the printed font is so ugly and letters are twisted together, I take the font 'HELVE', it should be all right, how can I solve it?!
Any suggestion will be appreicated!

I've try to find font HELVE in zebra web site to upload in Z4MPlus printer, but I couldn't find ? how can I?

Issues with Crystal 2008 Printing to a Zebra Label Printer with SP2

Hi there
We are having issues printing to a Zebra Label Printer using Crystal 2008 SP2.
When you attached a .rpt file to the .NET Application which is accessed via RDP/ICA the reports in Crystal XI worked fine.
Steps we have taken are:
Printing direct from Crystal 2008 Designer to the Zebra Printer works using a Generic Text Driver
Printing direct from Crystal 2008 Designer to the Zebra Printer using a Zebra Universal Print Driver DOES NOT work (we were advised the Universal Print Driver may assist with the issue)
The report when accessed via the .NET Application via RDP/ICA using the Universal Print Driver it doesn't work.
The report when accessed via the .NET Application via RDP/ICA using the Generic Print Driver it doesn't work.
The report when accessed via the .NET Application drectly from Server Console prints fine using Generic Print Driver, but not with RDP/ICA.
Can anyone offer any suggestions to a fix?
Many thanks.

Hello,
I'll look at this tomorrow when I get into the office. An I am moving this to the developer forum.
Thank you

Zebra Label Printing - DPI issue.

Hi Guru's,
I have a script for Zebra label printing. its an old script working fine. Now the issue is:
The above script is printing labels for 200 dpi printers as per the requirement.
Now one of the Markets have purchased 300 dpi printer. When the print the same label using the new printer using the script, they are getting the Label compressed.(i.e.. the Script is now much smaller and aligned to the left top corner, no data is missing but the Lettering is compressed and not occupying the total space alloted on the label).
I have chcked the manual for Zebra label printers, but could not solve my issue. Can any one of u help me. Thank you.
Here is extract of script used for initialisg the label:
/:   NEW-PAGE
/    ^XA
/    ^PW1200
/    DFI128FS
/    ^PRC
/    LH0,0FS
/    ^LL1500
/    ^LT12
/    ^MD0
/    ^MNY
/    CW1,B:CGTRI_NCW2,B:CGTRI_ICW3,B:CGTRI_BCW4,B:CGTRI_J^CW5
=    ,B:CGTRCO_NCW6,B:CGTRCO_ICW7,B:CGTRCO_J
/    LH0,0FS
Can anyone of you check this code & tell me where exactly the 'DPI' issue is handled in the script. Also any additions to the above script to acheive the solution....
regards,
Chaitanya L

Hi Balakrishnachaitanya,
i've made just a couple of sapscript whit the ZPL language, and i dont't think that you can set the DPI of print,
maybe you have to set the printer' settings.

Help with Zebra Label Printer and Multi Order Shipping Tool- Partial Label Printing

I have a zebra gx420d which is compatible the zebra 2844 (its the new model) and I am having a hard time printing labels with the multi order shipping tool. I have the correct driver, the printer test page works fine, and everything is configured for a 4x6 label.
I have set the selling preferences in paypal to match the zebra 2844 printer and within the mult order tool, I have edited the settings to also match zebra 2844.
My problem is that regardless of what or how I do it, my printer will only print a 1/4 of the label. It is not shrinking the label, it is starting to print at the correct size but stops 1/4 of the way through. Almost like it thinks my label size is too small but as i mentioned, I confirmed 4x6 on the label settings at both printer properties and printer preferences. I spent and hour on tech support with zebra and they confirmed the printer is working as it is supposed to. I also know this because my Amazon labels print correctly as well. Its only paypal and ebay labels that are not working. Very frustrating. Can anyone help?

Hi,
did you upload the desgin in a standard text with option ITF? This you can copy then to the layoutset. At least this is the way of working with BARONE.
Cheers,

How do we enable cutter option in the SAP Script for Zebra Label Printer

Hi Gurus,
We use Zebra Label(ZM400) printers to print the material documents(SAP Script). Could someone please tell me how do we enable the cutter option in the Zebra printer for the SAP Script?
Your vaulable answers will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Manoj.

Hi Manoj,
In Script you dont want to add any logic for Label Cutter, It should be in the Zebra printer settings if the printing is over it should cut the paper. If the print area is predefined for your material label then you can make use of standard label papers (Like 2"x4", 3"x4"....)

MICR font problem for check printing in ECC6

Hi All,
I am working of the re-deployment project. Here we are just migrating the objects from 4.6c to ECC6. I am facing the problem with SAP Script for check printing. It is working fine in 4.6c,but it is not working fine in ECC.
We are using HP 8150 printer with TROY magnetic chip and toner. It is working fine for 4.6C, but not for ECC6.
We are using "A" character for "Transit" and "C" character for "On as" in SAP Script. But during printing preview time it is not formatting it in MICR font.
I am working with basis team for font code page 4004. I came to know, it is showing character set in 4.6c with spool administrator tab character set, but this tab page does not showing any character set.
But according basis team, it is existing in ECC. If we will check through SCP it is showing unicode converted code page.
In 4.6c we are using Zee printer driver with Zee family fonts(ZMICR and ZSIGN) but in ECC we are using MICR_E(SAP provided MICR font) in TROY provided printer driver.
I have also come through the SAP note 94233 for MICR printing.
Same problem we are facing with digital signatures. It is not converting digital signature in graphical signature at MICR printer level.
Any help would be appreciated...........!
Thanks

Have problem in label printing program while printing continuously

Dear Gurus,
   i am working on a label Printing program. my requirement is that to print label as below in one page continuously :
     Label 1      Label 2
     Label 3      Label 4
     Label 5      label 6
but i am unable to do , please tell me how to do this . i v already did like this:
     Label 1      Label 1
     Label 2      Label 2
     Label 3     label 3
please reply.

Imagine you have a list (itab1) with one field only (matnr). To achieve what you need, you must create an itab2, with 2 fields (matnr1 and matnr2).
In your print program do something like:
DATA: l_mod TYPE i,
      l_line TYPE i.
CLEAR: l_mod, l_line.
LOOP AT itab1 INTO wa1.
ADD 1 TO l_line.
l_mod = l_line MOD 2.
IF l_mod NE 0. "position1
    wa2-matnr1 = wa1-matnr.
ELSE. "position2
    wa2-matnr2 = wa1-matnr.
    APPEND wa2 TO itab2.
    CLEAR wa2.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Verify is this code should predict some exceptions (last line or something).
Edit: last line:
ENDLOOP.
IF l_mod NE 0. "position1 was not appended
APPEND wa2 TO itab2.
ENDIF.

Remote Zebra (label) printer

Once connected to a VPN (manually as you mention), it is essentially "local" (the PC) and therefore the printer should be able to be shared/mapped as such.
Printers don't require IP's to be shared on a network.... but the PC will have to have an IP and remain on.

This is a continuation of another unresolved issue that we have in a remote warehouse. I'm not much of a printer guy, and need some advice on this -Backstory-We previously had a vpn tunnel to a remote warehouse, and the label printer connected to the network (network printer // connection). The printer was assigned a static IP on the subnet of our primary domain via the VPN tunnel. We have a PC inside their network with logmein, so I can access it directly to gain access to the router, etc. Note that this is not a company location, but a partner who ships product on our behalf, which is why we generate the labels from our main office- we set up the entire shipment, all they do is pack it and slap the label we print onto the box. We're not looking to add work for them.Due to the other issue with bandwidth issues, the primary router was...

Zebra label printing with Smartforms

Hi
I am currently using smartforms to print to Zebra printers. the fields are printing on Portrait format, i am not able to get them to print Landscape. I used the documented Command Node in Smartforms -
Attribute Name: S_LZPL_SETUP
Attribute Value: '^FWR'
this is still not working for me...am i doing something wrong in this Command line?
Documentation says i can only use Portrait in smartforms because Zebras doesn't understand Landscape...documentation offers the above workaround, but it doesnt seem to work for me...has it work for any of you?

Hello again,
currently i have some smartforms printing to zebra printers, and i did it, using BARONE for ZPL generation.
it's exactly the same thing, you create a main window, and in the text editor toy click "TxtEditor" just above the "Check" buttonm and you pass to the sapscript tradicional editor. In there copy adn paste the ZPL code.
Define the parameters in the "Form interface" and i'ts done.
this way you will be able to resolve your problem, it's up to you to use (or not) the barone for Smartforms.

Problems with label printing canon 2520

i just recently purchased the canon 2520 and im trying to print dvd labels in my image garden, i was all done with my label but when trying to print i get this message, "This data cannot be printed on the currently set printer. to print, change to a printer supporting the paper size set for this data." does anybody know what the settings to print dvd labels in this printer are? i already tried changing the settings a number of times but nothing works. the settings are actually right from what i see, is on 4.7 small inner circle

When you try to print disk labels from My Image Garden it's assuming you are printing directly on a CD with a printable label already on it, which this printer is not capable of.

I need to change the page setup to an unusual size for label printing

Hello. I'm trying to print a label that is 2" wide x 1-1/2 high. Firefox defaults to 8-1/2" x 11" or A4 page size and I've been unable to figure out how to change the default size to 2" x 1-1/2".
I've cleared all the margins to zero and removed all header and footer information. But how do I change the size to 2" wide x 1-1/2" high?
When I print, it will print the label correctly. However, it spits out 11" of labels instead of stopping at 1-1/2"
The printer is set up to accept the size (it's a Zebra label printer), but Firefox appears to be sending a page size that is different.
Any help here would be most appreciated.
Thank you

Thanks for your answer. Instead of formatting through FireFox, I had to go in and format it via the printer. Duh! Feel stupid not doing this first. If any one else has this problem, I was able to set it up on the printer by going to Printers > Printer Properties > Printer Preferences and set it up. Good luck and thank you for your reply.

Problem printing horizontal text in smartform with zebra Z6M label printer

hello,
The situation is this:
There is a Z smartform wich prints a label to a zebra Z6M label printer with the text and barcodes vertically.
The form have a command in the main windows with the parameter: S_LZPL_SETUP '^FWR'
This label works fine, but the client want to change the form, they have told me to create a new smartform and print the info horizontally, using the same printer.
The tests i have done are the following:
create a smartform from ground and write a template text and a barcode with a new font of system barcodes. the bardoce is shown ok(it is shown horizontally), the problem is that the template text is shown vertically, as in the original smartform.
then i tried on another zebra ZM600 label printer, similar model, but not the same, and the smartform printed was ok (text and barcodes shown horizontally). So i think is a configuration setting problem, but i dont know where to search.
i have checked the label printer parameters in SPAD, but didnt find anything souspicios.
have you any idea?
thanks in advance.

See these if they be of any help.....
BARCODE:
goto smartform styles-> create a style-->
create a character format.
under standard settings give the bar code name
use this style in ur smartform. select the data field which u want to barcode print and assign the character format
Similarly
SAPSCRIPT
open the form and click the character format button and
repeat the step as above....
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/68/4a0d5b74110d44b1b88d9b6aa1315b/frameset.htm
Go to Character formate in your form.
create a new char formate with enable BAR code AND
you can give its type too.
To Create a Bar code prefix:
1) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.
Which barcode printer are you using ? Can you download this file and see.
http://www.servopack.de/Files/HB/ZPLcommands.pdf.
It will give an idea about barcode commands.

Detailed information about SAP Barcodes
A barcode solution consists of the following:
a barcode printer
a barcode reader
a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.
Creating Bar code:
) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.

Problem Printing Labels on Zebra label printers

Hi Every one
(there may be old solution for my problem, if there is, point me
to that)
my environment is oracle 6, windows 2000. server is runnig on
windows NT.
I am generating labels using oracle reports 6 for an application
customised for pharmaceutical company. report has driver report
calls another label generator report. no matter from where i
print the report to zebra S400 label printer, my report builder
crashes. if i run the report from rep file in application, my
application crashes. if i save the report to a pdf file and
print it using acrobat reader, it prints perfectly. if i use any
other application like access, vb etc. they generate label and
print without any problems.
i have the latest windows 2k drivers for the printer. i also
have tried re-install oracle cleint on my pc. the result is
same. applications crash when print using oracle report to label
printer?
has any one come across such a problem? is there a solution for
it?
zebra label printers are pretty much a standard and are being
used in allmost all the client location that my deals with. and
they (printers) number in 1000's. in most of the cases labels
are generated using zpl language in ascii, but why cant oracle
reports print report generated labels to these printers?
zebra has no comments on this, but they demonstrate their
printer capabilities using all other windows based applications
and point back to oracle reports for the problem.
i appreciate any solution, lead, tip to overcome this problem.
thanks and regards
