Distribute visa USB driver

Hi,

could you explain how to distribute USB driver for zebra printer created from VISA Wizard.

 

I have labview 8.6, zebra printer GK420t. I have created .inf file using VISA wizard to communicate with printer. My code works fine, because I have VISA full version. But if I want to send my printer code to supplier, do that need to install VISA full version and create USB driver for their PC?  How should I distribute my printer codex to print labels? Without installing VISA full version? Only installing VISA run time.

 

Thanks

If you have already created the inf file, why would you expect someone else to do the same thing? The one you created should work with the VISA run time.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. If I send the .inf file and exe to the supplier, how does printer automatically refers to this driver instead of zebra printer driver without any setup? do I need to add .inf file reference in my code?

 

Regards

I think you would have to not install the original windows driver. You can't make a reference to the inf file in your code.
