Print shipping label on Zebra Label printer from ZOHO Creator deluge

Print shipping label on Zebra Label printer from ZOHO Creator deluge

Hi All,

Allow me to guide you through the process of printing a shipping label from ZOHO Creator to a Zebra label printer (ZD421D).

Step 1:
To start, configure the SendFileToPrinter API, which enables the transmission of a file to a Zebra Link-OS printer. Access this API within the Data Service Section of the Zebra Developer Portal. If you haven't already, create a free account on the portal to proceed with the configuration of the API.

Step 2:
Next, set up the invokeurl API within ZOHO Creator's deluge environment.

For label creation, I utilized basic ZPL code to generate the label, which is then converted into a text file and sent to the printer. Use https://labelary.com/ for easy label reation.

//Minor example of ZPL Code 
  • varZPLData="^XA^FO50,50^A0N,50,50^FDHello,World!^FS^XZ";^XA^FO50,50^A0N,50,50^FDHello, World!^FS^XZ
  • zplFile = varZPLData.tofile("Label.zpl");

  • // Construct the URL and headers for the Zebra SendFileToPrinter API
  • url_value = "https://api.zebra.com/v2/devices/printers/send";
  • headers_value = Map();
  • headers_value.put("apikey","9...FF"); //From Zebra Developer Portal
  • headers_value.put("tenant","6...99"); //From Zebra Developer Portal
  • // Create the multipart form data body
  • // Set the printer serial number
  • // Use the downloaded file as zpl_file
  • parameters = Map();
  • parameters.put("sn","D...5");//From Zebra Developer Portal
  • parameters.put("zpl_file",zplFile);
  • // Send the request to Zebra SendFileToPrinter API
  • response = invokeurl
  • [
  • url :url_value
  • type :POST
  • parameters:parameters
  • headers:headers_value
  • detailed:true
  • content-type:"multipart/form-data"
  • ];
  • Hope it helps you!
