PrintZPL

Description

This service allows you to send ZPL templates to a Zebra printer by using HTTP POST requests.

Installation

Download and run as service

The API

You try sending a request to http://localhost:9001/print/from-zpl

For installation as a executable application, see instructions below.

Print ZPL Label

Using these parameters you can send a ZPL template to a printer:

{
    "ZPL": "^XA^FO50,50^ADN,36,20^FDHello, world!!^FS^XZ",
    "IpAddress": "0.0.0.0.0",
    "Port": "6101"
}

Print ZPL Label with data

You can also send data parameters to process a template that has placeholders for data and specify a delimiter.

For example, if you use the $ delimiter in your ZPL template, you can send the following request:

{
    "ZPL": "^XA^FO50,50^ADN,36,20^FD$Greeting$, $Name$!^FS^XZ",
    "IpAddress": "0.0.0.0.0",
    "Port": "6101",
    "Data": {
        "Greeting": "Hello",
        "Name": "World"
    },
    "Delimiter": "$"
}

$Greeting]$ and $Name$ will be replaced by Hello and World respectively.

Print ZPL Labels in batch

Url: http://localhost:9001/batch-print/from-zpl You can send a batch of ZPL templates to a printer by using the following request:

{
    "PrintRequests":
    [
        {
            "ZPL": "^XA^FO50,50^ADN,36,20^FDHello, $Name$!^FS^XZ",
            "IpAddress": "0.0.0.0.0",
            "Port": "6101",
            "Data": {
                "Name": "World",
                "Name2": "OtherValue"
            },
            "Delimiter": "$"
        },
        {
            "ZPL": "^XA^FO50,50^ADN,36,20^FDHello, $Name$!^FS^XZ",
            "IpAddress": "0.0.0.0.0",
            "Port": "6101",
            "Data": {
                "Name": "World",
                "Name2": "OtherValue"
            },
            "Delimiter": "$"
        }
    ]
}
