Plc says the connection is alright because I'm getting (7004) on the status output, but it said there is no data send. At the moment im sending CHAR. What do i need to set to achieve this? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Split from Connect Zebra printer with s7 1200.

To work with Printer it should be connected as ZPL Mode As a example you can use following string code. '^XA^A0N,50,50^FO50,50^FDHello World^FS^XZ' Connect parameter also attached Attachment Connection.png (702 Downloads)

Via TCP protocol you can use TSEND/TRCV or equivalent _C blocks. I recommend some Zebra PC SW what is available and there you can easy prepare defined sequences and then test them from PC and as next PLC easy implementation.
