Hello Guru's and Practitioners: I'm between a big rock and a real hard place. The company I work for as a Systems Tech. is running numerous scan PC's with Windows98. They are currently buying and setting up a Sun server to connect the 3 little plants we have. Once that is completed (approx. 2 months) we'll begin setting up the scan systems to run on RH. I am known as the only one that has any Linux experience so the project was just dropped in my lap. Therefore, I NEED HELP!!!
The basic procedure is an order is placed and forwarded to the warehouse. Then a person will pull the order and scan each part as it's pulled and packed for that order and then forwarded to shipping. The scanning is accomplished with either a 1D or 2D Symbol scan gun and the data is broadcast via the wireless network to a PC which checks the order and verifies the correct part pulled and prints a summary report for billing and a label for shipping. I have to setup the PC's on the wireless network. I have already started downloading Symbol software for Linux but that only covers the data exchange from the PC to the scan gun (actually a data terminal) and data back to the PC. What I need help with is the programs that accepts the data and generate the report and automatically prints the label on a Sato thermal printer. Does anyone know of or have a similar setup running on Linux that can give me some direction? I don't know of any programs that are capable of doing this. Thanks. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
