Printer Configuration Menus
PRINT STATION
Description: Use this menu item to fill in variable fields in a label format and print the label
using a Human Input Device (HID), such as a USB keyboard, scale, or barcode scanner.
A suitable label format must be stored on the E: drive of the printer to use this option. See
the exercises in USB Host Port and Link-OS Demonstration Examples for an exercise
using this capability.
When you plug an HID into one of the printer’s USB host ports, use this user menu to select
a form on the printer’s E: drive. After you have been prompted to fill in each variable ^FN
field on the form, you can specify the desired quantity of labels to print.
For more information about using the ^FN command or the SGD commands related to this
feature, refer to the
Zebra Programming Guide. You can download a copy of the manual from:
www.zebra.com/manuals/.

• usb.host.template_list
