[cups.general] CUPS with Zebra 170XiIII

[TPanaitescu at colorcon.com]

Hi,

Your success depends on how the output is sent to the printer. If it is ZPL
then use RAW printer (works just fine here for ages now), if it's
postscript use the built-in CUPS driver (didn't test it thoroughly, you
need barcode fonts for PS).

Good luck,
T

Good morning everyone!

I am currently trying to replace a few Windows print servers with one Linux
machine running Red Hat ES 3.0 and CUPS.  I am having great success with
most printers, but I have run into a wall with my Zebra Label Printers.

I have a Zebra 170XiIII that is connected to an HP JetDirect Box.  I can
communicate with the printer, but I cannot print a single page.  I was
wondering if anyone has a driver that they could reccommend.  I called
Zebra and was told their drivers only support Windows.  So, I am hoping
that someone out there can help me get this working.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in Advance!
--Creighton
