How to manage command prefixes and delimiter on Zebra printers.
Zebra principle . . 2 1=Use save and restore printer configuration.
(will not work correct on all printer models)
2=Set values at the end of every printout.
- Control commands prefix Hex 7E Default = X'7E' (tilde)
- Format commands prefix Hex 5E Default = X'5E' (caret)
- Delimiter Hex 2C Default = X'2C' (comma)
F3=Exit F12=Cancel
Printing on Zebra printers can be done in two ways:
1. By letting InterForm400 save the current settings of the printer in the begining of
each merged spooled file, temporarily changing the command prefixes above and
then restoring the saved setting as the last thing in each merged spooled file. This is
how InterForm400 has been working in previous versions.
2. It has been found, that the above procedure can cause a problem in setups where
other applications are also printing to the same physical printers, so as an alternative
you can now also let InterForm400 set the prefixes and the delimiter above to fixed
values instead - without any save and restore. The default/recommended values are
listed above. Select option 2 above to use this feature.
The final screen of the configuration looks like below. You should normally select
principle 1 as shown below. If you however have any issues when selecting the right
drawer on the connected printers (when using the paper type), then you should
consider changing it to principle 2.
