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
