Zebra ZPL codes to printer from Labview

I had similar problem:

send data to my label printer

 

this is how it works:

1. install printer (in my case CAB EOS1  and give it the name: CABEOS1)

2. share printer (file and printer sharing)

3. now you can copy files (in my case JScript files) to printer by cmd -> copy /b jsfile.txt \\MYPC\CABEOS1

4. in LabView is it done in this way:

(see attached file)

You can disable spooling on a per-printer basis, so turning off  spooler for this printer won't influence some other printer. "Print any string" implies that anything I send to the printer through any way will get regarded by the printer as ZPL. So if you send binary data (like a Word doc or a PDF), the Zebra drivers printer will translate it as garbage. if print a content or text document and the tex file contains valid ZPL statements, the printer will translate the legitimate ZPL statements and render a name.
