Chris beat me to it
However, one word of caution
Make sure that there is a person where the printer is when you are sending labels there
That way - no one else will pick up the labels not realizing they are test transmissions
I was also testing something similar - and the person walked away for 2 minutes - didn't tell me and I sent down a load of test labels that I wanted mailed back to me
When I asked him to mail me the latest labels - he replied (eventually) what labels
My first reaction was that he was joking
Fortunately we found the person who picked them up

Well if the Zebra printer is IP attached, you should be able to define it on your local system, that is if routing is available to the remote network. You can also crtoutq qgpl/zebra rmtsys(where the zebra is attached)

Subject: Printing to a remote system
Hello all,
I have a question for the group. I'm working on a project where we are nearing the user testing phase. Our users will be testing the programs I've created on our test system, but will have the need to print labels to a Zebra printer that is connected to our production machine. The process is happening at one of our locations on the other side of the country from where I'm located. I'm trying to see if I can set up an automated way that will print the labels to the production system printer after they request them on the test system. Any tips or tricks on a good way to accomplish this? As always, all info is most appreciated. Thanks!
