Re: Zebra Printers

definitely use the ethernet connect (10/100).
This is the IBM Knowledge Base page for Zebra Printers - recommends a snmp definition (which is fine over ethernet). Suggest you read this page.
(my biggest problems swapping old zebra to new is if programs don't set the margins and the old printer has a diff margin than new)
(btw - i've not used the s4m..)

Greetings,

We are looking to replace our twinax attached label printer with a Zebra
S4M. I have spent some time combing the archives and although I could
not find anything specifically related to the S4M, I did find some
interesting threads.

Does anyone have any experiences with the S4M on connectivity, ease of
use, programming.... From what I have seen in the archives, seems that
the ZebraNet 10/100 print server is the recommend integration method and
that ZPL language is fairly easy to pick up - any thoughts?

We are using a 520 box (v6r1) and some really old COBOL programs to
create our labels. If anyone has any thoughts (pros/cons) for another
alternative, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
