Printer S4M only prints the code in stead of the label

When I print following code to a S4M printer from a VB6 program,it only prints the code and not the label.
I send it line per line with the Printer.print command and at the end with printer.enddoc.

I use the 'ZDesigner S4M ZPL 203DPI' printer driver.

Hello,

I have just tested this code in my printer and it works fine.
Make sure that your S4M is set to understand ZPL code and is not on dump mode.

Perhaps performing a full reset on it will cure the problem.

Hi I am unable to print from Zebra S4M.. while printing the configuration it prints but does not print the test page or the label.

There a number of things that can cause that: 1) wrong printer driver was installed 2) cable to printer is faulty 3) wrong port was selected when the printer driver was installed
Check these and let me know!

HELLO: PRINTS ONE LABEL

This could have a couple of different causes. Best thing to do is determine if the problem is with the printer or the software. Turn the printer off and back on again. After the power-on self test is done, just press the feed key. Does the printer feed just one label ? If so, then you know the printer has a good calibration on the size of the label. Now print a label. Does it skip one after printing ? If it does, now you know the problem is in the software because the printer is only going to do what it’s told to do. Check all settings in the label software / printer driver to make sure label size is accurate, correct printer driver is being used, etc.

So first check to see if the printer is ok by itself. If it feeds two labels after powering up, then the calibration is needs to be redone. Also make sure the media sensor is positioned over the label. This can cause skipping as well if out of position.

Hope that helps !

Problems with printing labels with counter ...

if you are using the free software that came with the printer, it does not print serialized numbers very well past about 160 or so... to stop the pausing uncheck the "Print bar code as a graphic" box and check the "Auto font scaling" box.

Zebra S4M Printer doesn't print

The fact that the Data message is displayed, means it is 'seeing' something. You may be losing the command character at the beginning that would cause the machine to ignore the rest of your code. If this is the first time you have attempted to use the serial port, you may have a setting incorrectly set. You need to match your Host exactly or the data may be framed incorrectly. The old standard was to send your data 8 bits, 1 stop-bit and no parity. Try Xon-Xoff with hardware handshaking too. I hope this helps.

S4M doesn´t print

The S4M comes with either EPL or ZPL programming language installed. (installed at factory) The S600 is a ZPL only printer. Check that you have correctly specified the S4M as a ZPL printer. Print a config label to check. If it is set as an EPL printer contact your supplier and ask him to download the correct programming language. It should only take a competent engineer about ten minutes (If he knows what he is doing)
