Using the Keyboard and Mouse Effectively

• When selecting objects, you can use the Ctrl key to adjust object’s anchoring point by
clicking the object placeholders.
• If you have a Wheel Mouse, you can use the wheel to scroll the label up and down.
Holding Ctrl when rotating the wheel adjusts zoom factor, and Shift scrolls the label left
or right.
• Double-click on printer’s name in status bar to open printer properties dialog box in which
you can set various options for currently selected printer.
• You can quickly move objects from one open label to another by dragging the desired
object to another window while holding Alt. If you want to copy objects instead, hold both
Alt and Ctrl . Note that you must have both label windows visible to do that.
• You can select different objects on a label using the Tab and Shift +Tab keys.
• Pressing the cursor keys while holding the Ctrl key can move the selected object. You can
use this to fine-tune the position of the object. Holding Shift while pressing cursor keys
will resize the object.
• You can use the right mouse button almost anywhere on the label to access the most
common options for that area/object. For example, if you click an object with the right
mouse button, a pop-up menu appears that contains options and actions that can be
performed on the selected object. Similarly clicking other parts of the label produces
pop-up menus with options for that part of the label.
• You can select multiple objects by holding Shift while clicking them.
• Use the element shortcuts in toolbars whenever possible. Each label element that can be
connected to some Contents Provider has a shortcut enabled to quickly access existing
variables or define new ones. Click the element’s shortcut handle, shown as a small arrow
by the side of some toolbox icons.

File Menu

New Label

To create a new label and clear the application work area, select New Label command from
File menu. Clicking the button has the same effect.

The software supports opening multiple documents and they are named with the increasing
numbers: Document1, Document2... unless you save them to different filename.

The Label Setup Wizard dialog box will appear on your screen. Label Setup Wizard offers

Open

This command opens an existing label. You can also click the button in the standard
toolbar.

The default label folder is My Labels from My Documents. This folder also includes
shortcuts to folder with sample labels. When you need to open a label file, which has been
saved on a different folder or drive, you can use Windows browse function to access it.

When searching the existing label, the Preview option can help you. Using it, the label design
of an existing saved label can be seen on the left-bottom frame, accompanied with the label
details: its title and description.

Once you have found the appropriate label, you can open it by double clicking its name, or by
clicking the Open button.

Close

This command closes the active document. When you have made changes in the document and
have not saved them, the program will prompt you to save the label.

If the document has not been named yet, the software will also prompt you for the name (Save
command will be executed).

Save

This command saves the active label in the current label file. If no file name has been defined
yet, you will enter the Save dialog box.

The Save command can also be accessed directly by click the button.

Save As

Select this command when you want to name a new label or when you want to copy an
existing label under the new name or to another folder or drive.

name in a status bar in the bottom of the working window.

Note that all printer settings are saved with the label and are restored every time the label is
opened. Each label will store its own custom printer settings. In case you want to print the
label with a different printer, this other printer will have to be setup again to suit your needs.
When changing the printer used on the label, every custom setting is lost and have to be
re-configured.

When you change the printer on the label or when you create a new label the default printer
settings are used. These default settings can be set for each printer in Control Panel.

Test Print

The Test print command will print the current contents to the printer as defined on the label.
All variable fields on the label are automatically filled with the default values.

The label will be printed in one copy. The purpose of this command is to quickly print the
label, so you can verify if the label objects are positioned on the right place and aligned to each
other correctly.

You can also design objects in other Windows applications, copy them to the clipboard, and
place them on the label with the Paste command.

Clicking the button or pressing the Shift and Ins keys or Ctrl and V keys
simultaneously can also activate the Paste command.

Object Positioning Guidelines

Guidelines are available to assist you in positioning objects on the label. The functionality of
guidelines is similar to grid, but they allow you much more freedom regarding positioning,
moving, and combining positioning delimiters.

Although the guidelines may be visible while designing the label, they will not be printed on
the final product, regardless of whether the Display Guidelines setting is turned on or off.

Create Guidelines

Create vertical and horizontal guidelines:

• Click anywhere in the ruler area and drag the line out of it (the top ruler contains
horizontal, and the side ruler contains vertical guidelines).
• Finally, you can open the View menu and access the commands there.

Using Guidelines

The guidelines may be moved at any time with the drag of a mouse. If they are dragged back to
the ruler area, they are deleted. It is possible to toggle between displaying and hiding the
guidelines, either by using the menu or right clicking them.

The guidelines can be hidden with the Ctrl+H shortcut key combination, and when they are
hidden, the Snap to Guideline functionality is also disabled. The menu also includes a
Remove all Guidelines command, which removes all the guidelines on the label.

Holding down the SHIFT key while dragging objects allows you to temporarily turn on the
Snap to Guidelines function.

Add Variable Fields

Overview
You may want to print a label on which the data changes for each label. ZebraDesigner for
mySAP offers different variable fields (date/time fields, link to the variables) that you can use
with text, picture, and bar code objects.

For this example, a new label was created. The steps in the following topics explain how to
create a label that contains a variable field, a counter, and date/time fields.

Resize Variable Fields (Shift-dragging)

The size of the variable fields on the label is determined by their sample data. The sample data
is defined during the variable creation process. The text object on the label is always as wide
as the width of the sample data formatted in the current Zebra font.

If the values for the variable will always occupy the same length or less as the sample data, the
label is printed correctly. But if the provided data will be longer than the sample data, the text
object can overlap the object to its right.

To avoid overlapping, you can resize the variable fields on the label.

To resize the variable fields on the label, do the following:

1. Select the variable text object on the label.

2. Press and hold the Shift key.

3. Resize the object to the right.

The new object frame defines the maximum extend to which the variable value can
occupy the space on the label.
Note • You can resize the object only to the right side.

Resize Variable Field linked to Single-Line Variable

If you resize the object linked to the single-line variable, the contents for the object will be
visible to the end of the object frame only.
For example, you have entered "SAMPLE" for the sample data. You have then resized the
object for one additional character to the right side. When you will print the label with value
"DESIGNER", not the whole text is printed. The text that does not fit into the designed frame,
will be cut.

Resize Variable Field linked to Multi-Line Variable

If you resize the object linked to the multi-line variable, the contents of the object will
automatically reformat into the multi-lines. The printer will reformat the text to optimally fill
into the designed frame.

Design an RFID Smart Label

Design an RFID Smart Label

Overview
The concept of RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) can be simplified to that of an
electronic bar code. First emerging in the 1980’s, RFID was primarily used to track objects in
industrial environments where bar codes were unable to sustain the harsh surroundings. Today,
RFID is being used to track proprietary assets, automate access control and has many more
additional fields of usage.

Some thermal printers have the ability to program a RFID tag at the same time as they are
printing the label. Two different technologies and their encoding methods are joined on the
same label. Of course a label must have embedded a RFID tag. The tag is paper thin, flexible
and small in size which allows it to be placed inconspicuously under the label. It consists of an
etched antenna and a tiny chip that can store ID number or your custom data in larger
quantities. This contrasts with a bar code label, which does not store any enhanced
information, but merely some code number.

RFID refers to technologies that use radio waves to automatically identify individual or groups
of items. The labeling software and ZebraDesigner driver support programming and printing
of RFID tags embedded in a label.
Note • You can use RFID functionality in the labeling software only if you have installed a
Zebra Driver with RFID support. Make sure you install the Zebra Driver for your RFID printer
before you design and print an RFID smart label. RFID functionality is only available with
ZebraDesigner Pro.

Encode RFID Tag

The RFID tags that are embedded into the label are usually one of these types:
• ISO tags, which encode blocks of data
• UHF and HF tags, which can encode one string of data.

7. You can continue designing the smart label with non-RFID data as described in the
previous sections.
Note • When you print the label, the RFID data will be sent to the printer. The printer
prints the RFID smart label and programs the RFID tag embedded into the label at the
same.
Note • ZebraDesigner for mySAP can also work with Unique RFID tag numbers. Each
RFID tag has embedded a unique serial number. All RFID Zebra printers can read the
Unique RFID tag number from the RFID tag and use it on the label as data contents of
some label object.

Support for RFID Tags

With the labeling software you can program RFID tags of different manufacturers. It is
important to use a ZebraDesigner printer driver. You cannot program RFID tags, if you do not
use the ZebraDesigner Driver.

ZebraDesigner Driver will let the labeling software know which types of RFID tags the printer
supports.

Not all tag types are always available. The kind of RFID tags that will be available depends on
the selected printer model. There are generally two types of tags:
• ISO tags (TagIt, iCode, ISO...): These are block oriented tags. The data can be encoded in
multiple blocks.
• UHF tags (EPC): The data is encoded in one block of data.

You can input content for RFID tags using different methods, depending on the tag type (UHF
or ISO).

For UHF tags

Data type: Data type of the selected tag can be specified here.

Data source: Incoming data that is encoded in the tag can be a fixed value or acquired from
some variable, defined in the label.

Data size: The currently used data is previewed here. You can see the amount of space still
available in the tag. The occupancy of the tag is seen graphically with growing bar and
numerically with the digit, explaining the number of already used bytes.

Block locked: If you set the block as locked, the data will be permanently encoded into the
tag. You will not be able to erase this block to re-program it with some other value. Use this
option with caution!

For ISO tags

The blocks that are dimmed and inaccessible are reserved blocks that cannot be used.

Block Number: The successive number of block in the tag.

Data source: Select where the data block will receive the data from. It can be Fixed, where
you will manually type in the data or can be Variable, where the value is acquired from some
variable defined in the label.

Data: Type in the tag value manually, if the selected data type is Fixed. Select the variable
defined in the label, if the selected data type is Variable. If your variable length is greater than
the block size, the next block will automatically be reserved for the data.

Size: The currently used data is previewed here. You can see the amount of space still
available in the tag. The occupancy of the tag is seen graphically with growing bar and
numerically with the digit, explaining the number of already used bytes.

Data type: The data can be encoded as ASCII string or as HEX encoded string.

Locked: If you set the block as locked, the data will be permanently encoded into the tag. You
will not be able to erase this block to re-program it with some other value. Use this option with
caution!

RFID Tag Locking

Tag locking is not available for all tag types, printers, and drivers. If the Locking Settings...
button is not displayed in the RFID tag dialog window, you may be using an unsupported
RFID tag type, printer, or driver. The locking settings are available for some GEN2 tag types.
For more information, see your printer and driver documentation.

RFID tag locking enables the user to lock the RFID tag, so that no changes can be made to it
without unlocking the tag first. If the tag is permanently locked, it is not possible to unlock it,
and the RFID tag can never be changed.

Preserve original locking setting: The original locking setting cannot be retrieved, but the
default option assumes that the tag setting should remain unchanged.

Lock: The RFID tag is locked and further changes to it are prevented.

Unlock: The RFID tag is unlocked, so that it can be changed.

Relock: The RFID tag is unlocked, the changes are applied, and the tag is locked immediately
after.

Permanent lock/unlock: Checking this box will apply your selection above permanently and
prevent later changes to it. This setting cannot be undone.

RFID Tag Settings

Tag Information: This section provides the information about the selected tag type. You can
see the structure of the selected RFID tag. The outlook of the information depends on the
selected type of the tag. For RFID Gen2 you will see table-like structure with the information
about the available data fields, number and size of the block, read or write support.

For other RFID tags, you can review the following structure:

Number of blocks: The number of blocks that are available in the RFID tag.

Reserved blocks: The number of blocks that cannot be accessed and used.

Block size: The size of each block (in bytes).

Unique RF Tag: This property is set to Yes, if you have the printer and/or the tag type that can
provide you with the Unique Tag ID. Each tag has a unique ID encoded already in the
production line. If your printer can read this information from the tag, you can use it with the
label objects using RFID Tag Contents contents provider.

For example: The printer scans Unique Tag ID, remembers it and prints it on the label encoded
in a bar code element. The value of Unique Tag is never returned to the labeling software. It is
handled internally by the printer.

RFID Tag Data Read: This property is set to Yes, if you have the printer and/or the tag type
that allows the extraction of the encoded data. You can extract all or part of the data encoded in
the RFID tag and use it with the label objects.

Tag Settings: This section provides more control for RFID programming.

Antenna offset: To achieve better programming accuracy use this option to define the offset
for the antenna in the printer. The Offset is the distance from the antenna to the embedded tag
on the label. This option will help you program the tags more accurately.

Maximum tags to stop: When the programming of the RFID tag fails, usually the word
"VOID" is printed on the label. With this option you can specify how many tags can be
programmed incorrectly. The option can be used as a precaution measure to prevent endless
consumption of labels.

Number of retries: The number of times the printer will try to program the tag if first attempt
fails. The parameter is sent to the printer with the rest of the data.

Check for a valid tag: Before the tag programming begins, the printer will verify if there is a
proper RFID tag available in the smart label. The printer will also verify if the tag can be
programmed at all. If the printer cannot check the currently selected RFID tag, the option will
not be accessible.

Verify data write: Once the data has been encoded into the RFID tag, the printer will check if
the written data is equal to the original value.

Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) settings

EAS is not available for all printers and drivers. If your RFID Tag Settings do not include EAS
Settings, you may need to update your printer driver or select a different printer. For more
information, see your printer and driver documentation.

Preserve original EAS setting: The original EAS setting cannot be retrieved, but the default
option assumes that the tag setting should remain unchanged.

Enable EAS: Enable Electronic Article Surveillance in the RFID tag. If this was the original
setting, the tag will remain unchanged.

Disable EAS: Disable Electronic Article Surveillance in the RFID tag. If this was the original
setting, the tag will remain unchanged.

Permanently lock EAS tag setting: Checking this box will permanently lock the chosen
setting for the EAS. This lock cannot be undone.

Change Dithering Options

Dithering is a process of converting color or gray scale pictures to black and white pictures
that can be printed on thermal printers. Thermal printers normally cannot print color images
and can either print a dot on the label or not. There are no intermediate shades of gray.

During the dithering process all colors and shades of gray in the picture are converted to black
and white dots, creating the illusion of new colors and shades by varying the pattern of dots.
Different shades of gray are produced by varying the patterns of black and white dots. There
are no gray dots at all. In printing, dithering is usually called halftoning. Shades of gray are
called halftones.

To change the dithering settings, do the following:

1. From the File menu, select Printer Settings.

The window with the printer settings will open.

2. Open the Dithering tab.

3. Change the Dithering Type option to suit your needs. Look at the preview on the right

The number of characters in the object will be equal to the length of
the variable. This might be useful when you are changing the data
used with the label and want to conserve current positioning and
formatting of the objects on the label.

There are several methods to connect a variable to some label element that should contain
variable values.
• If you have the element already positioned on the label, select it, then choose the
appropriate variable in the list.
• If the element is not already on the label, you can first select the variable in the list and
then click the label where you want the element positioned. Text element will appear there
and will be connected to the selected variable.
• You can click on the small arrow button next to the object icon in the toolbox, select the
option Use Existing Variable, select the variable from the list and click on the label.

Edit Bar Code Dialog Box

This dialog box is displayed when you click the Define button on the bar code dialog box. On
this dialog box you specify the type of bar code you want to use on the label and all additional
advanced settings: how the bar code should be generated, if the check digit should be
automatically calculated or not, and various other options. If the Enable preview check box is
checked, a preview of a resulting bar code is displayed on the right side of the dialog box.

When you are satisfied with the bar codes properties, confirm the changes you made by
clicking the OK button or reject them and keep previous settings by clicking the Cancel
button.

The Edit Bar Code dialog box has several pages (tabs).

General Tab

On this tab, you can select the bar code type you want to use and the properties of the bar code.

Figure 36 • Edit Bar Code dialog box – General tab

Type of bar code: The required bar code symbology is selected from the tree list of available
bar codes.

Symbol height: The height dimension of a bar code can be specified either by entering a value
here or by resizing the bar code symbol directly on the label.

X-Expansion factor: The expansion factor defines the width of the bar code symbol.

Ratio: This is the ratio between narrowest and widest bar in the bar code. It is locked for the
majority of bar codes, but it can be changed for some.

Base object width: Shows the width of the narrowest bar in the bar code.

Print bar code as graphics: Select if bar code should be converted to a picture and sent to the
printer as image or should the printer print bar code as an internal element. Printing internal
bar codes will speed up label printing because less data must be transferred to the printer.
Note • If the printer does not support the selected bar code internally, the option Print bar
code as graphics will not be available. All office printers will print bar codes as pictures.

Check Digit Tab

This tab is used to specify if you want to use the check digit in the bar code or not. This option
can only be modified for the bar codes that allow you to enable and disable the check digit.

Some bar code standards include the check-digit by definition and it cannot be omitted. An
example of such bar codes are EAN and UPC bar codes, where the check digit cannot be
disabled at all. But some codes allow you to freely enable/disable the check-digit.
Note • We recommend that you always include the check digit character in the bar code. It will
increase the scanning reliability.

Figure 37 • Edit Bar Code dialog box – Check digit tab

You can choose whether you want to input the check digit value, or let the program calculate it
for you:

Auto-generate check digit: Check digit is calculated by the software. You enter the bar code
data only. For example: when using EAN-13 bar code, you enter the first 12 digits; check digit
on the 13th place will be calculated and added automatically.

Verify the provided check digit: Use this command when you want to enter the value for the
check-digit. At print time, the entered check digit will be verified for validity.

Enable custom check digit algorithm: You can set a custom algorithm for calculating the
check digit. Click on the button Select to choose the algorithm.

Human Readable Tab

On this tab, you can set the options regarding position and format of the bar code
interpretation.

No interpretation: Bar code object does not have any human interpretation.

Below bar code: All data encoded in the bar code is placed beneath the bar code symbol as
human readable characters.

Above bar code: All data encoded in the bar code is placed above the bar code symbol as
human readable characters.

Font: Using the Font button, you can choose the font for auto-translation text. The option
Auto font scaling will adjust the font of the auto translation text to the size of the bar code.
Note • You can format the font for human interpretation only if the bar code is printed as a
graphic. When printing the bar code as an internal printer object, the printer will print the
interpretation using resident built-in fonts.

Contents mask sets the custom format of the human interpretation.

Details Tab

On this tab, you can define advanced settings for the bar code.
Note • Not all of these options are available for all bar codes and printers.

Include quiet zones: Check this field if you want the bar code to have some white space in the
front and in the end for increased readability.

Descender bars: Some bars of a bar code will be longer than others. This is typically used
with EAN and UPC bar codes that have longer bars in the beginning, in the middle and in the
end of the bar code.

Mirror horizontally/mirror vertically: The bar code can be mirrored vertically and
horizontally. The bar code will usually have to be printed as a graphic for this option to be
accessible.

Intercharacter gap: Some bar codes allow you to change the gap between characters in the
bar code (e. g. Code-39).

Include EAN white space: Before and after the bar code a white space is inserted or not, as
desired. It indicates the width of the bar code. If you put any other object in the area of the bar
code, it will reduce the readability of the bar code. This option is valid only for EAN bar
codes.

Work with Variable Data

Dynamic Data Overview

You may want to print labels on which the data changes for each label, for example, serial
numbers, date, and time. To accommodate changing data, ZebraDesigner for mySAP can be
used to format labels using the variable fields. Variable fields can be used with text and bar
code objects.

There are several types of variables you can choose. The data for the variables must be
provided before label can be exported:
• You must provide the values for the variables before the label can be printed.
• The data is provided from the printer’s clock for the date and time fields (internal printer
RTC).
• The data is provided from the RFID tag embedded into the label (RFID tag Unique ID).

Create Single-Line Variable

As the name suggest, you can use single-line variable in one line of text on the label.

To create a single-line variable on your label, do the following:

1. Make sure the Variable Toolbar is visible. If it is not, select View > Toolbars > Variable.

2. In the Variable Toolbar, click the button. The Variable Wizard will start.

3. Enter the name of the variable. Use a descriptive name. It will help you know what is the
contents of the variable.

4. Click the Next button.

5. Enter the Sample data.

When you will link your variable to the label object, the sample data will be used for the
contents of the object. The sample data is shown during label design only.
Note • When you will print the label, the variable will use the data you provide, not the
sample data.

6. Click the Finish button.

Create Multi-Line Variable

As the name suggest, you can use multi-line variable with more lines of text in the text object
on the label. The variable can contain as many characters in each line as you specify. The total
amount of allowable characters is number of characters per line times number of lines. For
example, if you allow 20 characters in a line and have 5 lines, the total number of characters is
100.

Note • When you will print the label, the variable will use the data you provide, not the
sample data.

7. Click the Finish button.

Using Printer Real Time Clock (RTC)

When the printer selected on the label has a built-in Real Time Clock (RTC), you can use the
time or date fields from the Real Time Clock with text objects on the label. The available time
and date formats are defined in the printer driver.

To use the time field from the printer RTC on the label, do the following:

1. In the Toolbox, click the button.

2. Click the position on the label, where you want to place the object.
Text Wizard dialog box will open.

3. Enable the Variable text option.

4. Click the Next button.

5. Select the Time Field option.

6. Click the Next button.

7. Select the appropriate time format from the list.

Printer driver provided the software with the list of available time formats. You cannot
define your own time format, they are determined by the printer functionality.

8. Click the Finish button.

Note • When you are using a prefix and suffix with the Real Time Clock field on the label,
make sure that the length of the prefix and suffix does not exceed 31 characters.
When you are using a linked field and are merging a Real Time Clock field with other
fields, make sure that the length of fields surrounding Real Time Clock field does not
exceed 31 characters.

Use Variable Wizard

Variable Wizard
Use the variable wizard to create and manage the variables in the label file. When you assign
value to the variables the same value will be used with all objects on the label that are linked to
the variable.

The variables can be linked to Text and Bar Code objects.

To create a variable follow on-screen instructions in the variable wizard.

Define Variable Name

You can define the variable name and quantity information in this step of the variable wizard.

Variable Name: Type in the variable name. The variable name will be included in the
exported label. Make sure you use the proper variable name that is recognized by the Format
Generation Wizard.
Note • Make sure you include the proper characters for the variable left and right tag
characters. These characters define the beginning and end of the variable name. Use the tag
characters as suggested by ZebraDesigner for mySAP software. For example; for the left tag
character % can be suggested, for right tag character & can be suggested.

Define Variable Properties

You can define the variable data properties in this step of the variable wizard.

Sample data: Enter the appropriate data for the variable. The entered data will be used for
design and preview functionality. You will assign the variable with its proper value outside of
ZebraDesigner for mySAP software.

Multiline Variable: Click this option, if you want to enable the multi-line functionality for the
variable. You will be able to enter more than just one line of sample data.
Note • To move to the next line of text press the key combination Ctrl+Enter.

Maximum number of characters: Define the maximum number of characters the variable
can occupy. The number defined here must correspond to the external application that will
actually set variable values.

Number of lines: Define the multi-line variable. Enter the number of lines the variable can
occupy.

To find out the total number of characters the variable can contain multiply the maximum
number of characters in a line with number of lines. For example: if you have 10 characters in
one line and have defined 3 lines of data, 30 characters can be set to the variable.

formatting in the exported label file. You can override the default settings and include some
special parameters or commands with the variable name. Define a script and include not only
the variable name in the script, but other parameters and commands using the Zebra
Programming Language (ZPL).
Note • This feature is for advanced users only. You have to be familiar with the ZPL to
successfully use the script option.

Use script: Click this option to enable the script option. Write your script in the provided

Test Print Labels

To test print the label, do the following:

1. Make sure you have your printer connected to the computer.

2. Make sure the printer is online and available for printing.

3. Click on icon in the Standard toolbar to quickly print your label to the
printer.
Note • The variables will be assigned with a default values, but you will get an overview, if the
label is designed correctly and the objects fit on the label. You also see how the pictures are
processed and printed. When you place a picture on the label, in design mode it is always
shown in color-depth as defined in the picture.

When printing the labels, the preview of the pictures depends on the dithering option set in the
printer driver. All color pictures (except WMF and EMF files) are converted to monochrome
images. The illusion of colors and shades of grey is accomplished by varying the pattern of
dots. More dots close together will provide a darker shade of grey.

The test print of the label will show pictures in the same way as they will be printed according
to the dithering setting. If the picture is not printed as you would like to print it, change the
dithering setting in the printer driver.

Export to Printer
To verify the printout of your label, from the menu, select File > Test Print. When you are
satisfied with the designed label, you can export the label to the printer. During the export
process, ZebraDesigner for mySAP™ Business Suite runs the Format Generation Wizard and
converts the label format to ZPL.

The generated file includes commands from the Zebra Programming Language (ZPL) and is
ready to be used in the printer for off-line printing.
Note • Off-line printing is a term that describes the type of label printing where the label
design application is not available at print time. Usually the label format is stored in the
memory of the printer and can be recalled. Off-line printing support is great for print
requirements where the PC computer cannot be included in the label printing process either
because of unacceptable working conditions or logistic issues. Off-line printing also provides
faster label printing because all variable objects on the label use internal printer functionality.

To export the label to printer, do the following:

1. From the menu, select File > Export to Printer.

Local broadcasts send a discovery request to the local broadcast address of 255.255.255.255.
This request finds printers in the same local network as the requesting computer.

The local broadcast search populates itself.

To perform a local broadcast search, do the following:

1. From the Select Network Destination dialog box, click Search Print Server.

2. In the Search Type dialog box, enable Local Broadcast. The Value field is automatically
populated.

3. Click Add. The Value field is added to Search type.

4. Click Next. The Select Print Server dialog box opens.

5. Using the buttons between the two panels, select the print servers you want.

6. When you are finished, click Next. This confirmation dialog box opens: Objects have
been saved to file. Test file can now be sent for test print.

7. To send, click Send File.

Subnet Search
The subnet search sends a discovery request to each address in the specified subnet. This
feature is useful for networks that prevent broadcast packets from passing across routers. The
Subnet search requires you to type in the first three subnet octets.
Example • A request to 192.168.2.* sends a request to: 192.168.2.1 through 192.168.2.254.

To perform a subnet search:

1. From the Search Type dialog, enable Subnet xxx.xxx.xxx.*.

2. In the Value field, type the first three subnet octets. Then type an *.

3. Click Add, and then click Next. The Select Print Server dialog opens.

4. Using the buttons between the two panels, select the print servers you want.

6. To send, click Send File.

Directed Broadcast
Directed broadcasts send a discovery request to the broadcast address of the specified subnet.
Note • If a broadcast search does not work, the broadcast packets might be disabled across
routers. Try multicast or subnet search.

Example: The directed broadcast search requires you to type in the first three subnet octets,
followed by 255, such as 192.168.2.255.

To perform a Directed Broadcast search:

1. In the Search Type dialog, enable Directed Broadcast. The Value field is automatically
populated.

Multicast
Multicast uses the multicast address to send a discovery address to all Zebra printers across as
many routers as the hop count specifies. A multicast search may return a large number of
printers in some installations.

On some routers, this feature might be disabled. See your network administrator to determine
if a search failure was due to this feature being disabled.

1. In the Search Type dialog, enable Multicast (Hops). The Value field is automatically
populated.

2. Click Add.

3. Click Next. The Select Print Server dialog opens.

4. Using the buttons between the two panels, select the print servers you want.

2. Click Add.

Optimize the Printing Speed

Optimize the Printing Speed

There are many factors that affect the printing speed. By following the guidelines below you
can dramatically increase the speed of printing:
• Use the printer’s internal fonts instead of Windows’ true-type fonts. True-type fonts must
be sent to the printer as graphics and the size of the file is much bigger (kilobytes). When
using internal fonts, only the text is sent to the printer (bytes). If you must use true-type
fonts, use the ZebraDesigner Font and Graphics Downloader program, to download these
fonts to the printer’s memory and access these fonts as internal printer fonts (only
available if your printer supports download of the fonts).
• When using bar codes, make sure that you do not print bar codes as graphics if your
printer supports printing bar codes.

Set the printing speed to a higher value (if your printer supports it). Note that setting the
printing speed usually affects the quality of printing. The higher the speed, the lower the
quality.
