Hi guys

I have a question i want to print a label in an intermec printer, but i want to do it via tcp. I am able to print that label with the serial port, using DOS prompt, Hyper terminal and with labview, but i cant print it using TCP can some one has done this, and can tell me how to print it. Thanks

Regards,

Enrique

Hi Enrique!

If you have the Report Generation Toolkit its really easy to print to any printer availavle in your system. The following example shows you  how to do this:

You just have to make sure your printer is being detected by your system.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!!

Hi Mudda

On LabVIEW if you go to Help>>Find Examples, you will be able to acces the NI Example Finder where you can search in the Search tab TCP/IP and several examples on how to send commands via TCP/IP will appear. you can use these examples to review the architecture used to send commands via TCP/IP. Hope this helps

Have a great day
