Verify the Printer is Working

Before you connect the printer to your computer or portable data

terminal, make sure that the printer is in proper working order. You

can do this by printing a conguration label using the “two key”

method. If you can’t get this label to print, refer to “Troubleshooting”.

Printing a Conguration Label

1. Turn the printer o󰀨. Load the media compartment with journal

media (media with no black bars or gaps on the back)

2. Press and hold the Feed Button.

3. Press and release the Power button and keep the Feed button

pressed. When printing starts, release the Feed button. The

unit will print a line of interlocking “x” characters to ensure all

elements of the print head are working, print out the version of

software loaded in the printer and then print the report.

The report indicates model, serial number, baud rate, and more

detailed information on the printer’s conguration and parameter

settings. (See the Troubleshooting Section for sample printouts

and a further discussion on how to use the conguration label as a

diagnostic tool.)

Connecting the Printer

The printer must establish communications with a host terminal

which sends the data to be printed. Communications occur in four

basic ways:

• ZQ630 printer can communicate by cable via either RS-232C

or USB 2.0 protocols. Windows drivers that support printing via

Serial, USB and the network are included in the Zebra Designer

Driver which can be downloaded from www.zebra.com/drivers.

• By means of a wireless LAN (Local Area Network) per 802.11

specications. (Optional)

• By means of the Ethernet when docked on the Ethernet cradle.

• By means of a Bluetooth short range radio frequency link.

• WinMobile

, Blackberry

, and Android

devices use standard

Bluetooth protocol.

• ZQ630 printer is compatible with iOS devices, therefore printing

via Bluetooth to an Apple

device is possible.
