Thanks to all that came to our August meeting.
We recently changed the way a customer generates labels on a Zebra
printer. We moved away from the proprietary ZPL arrangement because we
wanted to pull data directly from our database rather than having to
rebuild a ZPL label format. No we didn't write a program to generate
the ZPL. We have an process that builds PDF files that we then print in
all manner of places, now including labels. This arrangement is great
when the prints (of any kind) are unique one to the next.
Our problem is with the customer that prints 100 or 300 of the same
label. (yeah, I know, there is a point at which having the labels
printed by a print shop is cheaper.) Because we are now driving this
print from our server, one at a time, the print process takes forever.
If the printer is paused, the prints queue up such that when the printer
is resumed, a stack print out quickly.
Any thoughts on how to tune a network printer's "inter-record gap?"
