Zebra Item Prep Label Configuration


Prerequisites:

1. Label size MUST be 2.25” x 4.00”.
2. If the customer has purchased 2.00” x 4.00” labels (or any size other than 2.25” x 4.00”) then they will need to have a custom report written ($150) to accommodate the change in label size. 

Recommendations:

 

For Item Prep Label, if the report is printing off on two labels; first have the customer measure the label (must be 2.25 x 4.00) second, make sure they have the most current ItemPrepLabel.rpt (run FTP Update)

Windows Server 2008 SP2 64-bit using a Zebra 3844 printer the report needs to be .25” for the Top Margin.

Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit using Zebra 2824 printer the needs to be 0.00” for the Top Margin.
