What language does the printer use? ELTRON or ZPLI or II? Look at the outq
print, do the characters start with ^ or something else?
Do you use TL Ashford or are you trying to do the bar coding yourself?
Sounds like it's going out to the printer OK, but the printer isn't
interpreting it correctly.
HTH,
Craig

Subject: Configuring a Zebra 140xi II for LAN printing
Good Afternoon,
I am trying to configure my first LAN attached Zebra Label
Printer and I don't think I've got it quite right.
When I release the Label to print it comes up with the message
to load the form type and when I give a g to go then print jobs goes
into a PND state and no output comes out.
The printer is a Zebre 140xiII and the following is my device
