Are you specifying O_CODEPAGE when you open the text file that ultimately holds the label data?
For example:
fd2 = open( 'shipping_label.txt'
: O_WRONLY + O_CREAT + O_EXCL + O_CODEPAGE
: S_IRUSR + S_IWUSR + S_IRGRP + S_IROTH
:819);
I failed to mention that we do that as well.

My text file on the ifs has a CCSID of 819. I removed all my translation code and took my decoded base64 and dumped to ifs text file created with 819 CCSID. Now when viewing this file it is unrecognizable code. Removed the line feed check and just dumped back into qsysprt *userascii and still nothing prints.
I know I have all the right components to make this work, I just cannot figure out which sequence of events is the right combination.

Lynn,
What is the CCSID of the IFS files you are trying to print? I use 819 and that works for me. I don't bother with *EBCDIC to *ASCII translation, nor do I bother with line feeds. If you write the base64 decoded data to a file that is created with an ASCII CCSID you shouldn't have to do any translation when it is sent to a *USERASCII spoolfile.

This is the file created on the IFS after decoding and translating. We are storing the labels on the IFS so a reprint would be possible. When I call the program to print the label, it retrieves the file, overrides to *userascii and checks for line feed characters.
But nothing comes out of the printer.

Lynn,
Is that is ascii or ebcdic?
It must be in ebcdic if you are using an outq.
If you send it directly to the 105SL using a socket, it must be ascii.
I do this all the time to 105SLs.
HTH,

This is the contents of my text file. It is a UPS label string generated by UPS. I am printing to a Zebra 105SL.

Hello Lynn
What is the content of the file, you send to the zebra-printer? What is the model of the zebra-printer?
Best regards

Hello all again,
I am having an issue with a printer file I create as *userascii goes
to the printer and disappears. I am reading a text file from the
IFS,(I can open the file and see my ZPL font), I read the stream file,
parse out the line feeds, write to qsysprt.
Printer file gets created, cannot open as it is *userascii. When
released it simply disappears and nothing prints.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
