将打印作业从PuTTY发送到Zebra ZXP 3 SDK（非zpl打印机）

Question

我拥有的是一个通过PuTTY（SSH客户端）访问的病历数据库。 卡本身仅具有客户名称，条形码格式的记录号（仍确定要使用的条形码类型）以及客户注册日期。

1）对于Zebra条形码标签打印机，或者与RAW格式的HP或Brother等激光打印机兼容的格式，我们可以将数据输出为.zpl。 2）ZXP 3 SDK将接受什么输出？ 3）是否可以将SDK设置为使用RedMon之类的命令行来等待并接受来自其的数据？

卡本身仅具有打印的数据，没有磁条，智能芯片，层压板或类似的东西。

玛哈洛提前。

Answer 1

我不建议您使用RedMon或SDK，因为您要尝试做的都不是必需的，而且它们都是时间吸血鬼。 相反，我将编写一个小的Windows窗体应用程序，该应用程序侦听TCP端口以接收打印作业，并将其发送到使用Zebra驱动程序的标准打印机。

让MUMPS应用程序通过VT100中的“远程打印”支持发送XML文档。 我一直在使用的示例如下：

^[[5i
<patient>
    <name first="John" last="Smith" />
    <mrn>A04390503</mrn>
    <dob>1991-03-12</dob>
</patient>
^[[4i

在Windows客户端上配置打印机以重定向到TCP / IP：

1. 添加打印机
2. 本地打印机
3. 创建一个新端口
   • 标准TCP / IP端口
   • 主机名：127.0.0.1
   • 端口名称：CardFormatter
   • 取消选中“查询打印机并自动选择要使用的驱动程序”
   • 设备类型：自定义
     • 协议：原始
     • 端口：9101
4. 驱动程序：通用/纯文本

登录时启动应用程序，然后从服务器进行打印。 MUMPS应用程序将发回XML，Putty将其打印到XML文本打印机，该XML将被发送到本地主机上的C＃应用​​程序。 C＃应用程序解释XML并通过Zebra驱动程序或SDK将其打印到实际打印机。

注意：这仅假设每个工作站一个交互式会话。 如果您使用的是快速用户切换或终端服务，则必须格外小心，以确保一切正常。
