Testing Communications by Printing
Verifying the print system’s operation is a relatively simple process. For Windows operating systems, use
the Zebra Setup Utility or the Windows Printers and Faxes or Devices and Printers to access and print a
test label. For non-Windows operation systems, copy a basic ASCII text file with a single command (~WC) to
print a configuration status label.
Test Printing with Zebra Setup Utility:
1. Open the Zebra Setup Utility.
2. Click on the newly installed printer’s icon to select the printer and activate the printer configuration
buttons below it in the window.
3. Click the Open Printer Tools button.
4. In the Print tab window, click the Print configuration label line.
5. Click the Send button. The printer should print a configuration report.
Test Printing with Windows Printer and Devices menu:
1. Click the Windows Start menu button, to access the Printers and Faxes or Devices and Printers menu.
You may also use the Control Panel to access the menus. Open the menu.
2. Select the newly installed printer’s icon to select the printer and right-click the mouse to access the
printer Properties menu.
