Pre-install Windows® Printer Drivers

980611-001 Rev. C GX420d™ / GX430d™ User Guide 8/4/10

Pre-install Windows

Printer Drivers

Zebra is changing the way you install and use your printer with your Windows based PC

systems. We recommend that at minimum, the ZebraDesigner™ Windows

driver be pre-

installed to take advantage of the advancements in ease of use and simplicity of the Windows

operating systems since the release of Windows XP

SP2.

Zebra provides the Zebra Setup Utilities (ZSU); a suite of Zebra

printer drivers, utilities, and

communications and installation tools for use with most Windows PC operating systems.

Zebra Setup Utilities and Zebra Windows printer drivers are available on the user’s CD and the

Zebra web site (www.zebra.com) for latest versions.

ZebraDesigner™ Driver and Zebra Setup Utilities (includes the driver): Supports

Windows 7

, Windows Vista

, Windows XP

, Windows

2000

, Windows Server

2008,

and Windows Server

2003 operating systems. The driver supports 32 bit and 64 bit Windows

operating systems and is Microsoft Certified. Zebra Setup Utilities and the ZebraDesigner

driver support the following G-Series printer communication interfaces: USB, parallel, serial,

Wired and Wireless Ethernet and Bluetooth (using a Bluetooth virtual printer port).

Install the Zebra Setup Utilities before applying power to the printer connected to the PC

(running a Zebra driver supported Windows operating system). The Zebra Setup Utility will

prompt you to apply the printer power. Continue to follow the instructions to complete your

printer installation.

Plug’N’Play (PnP) Printer Detection and Windows

operating systems

More recent Windows operating systems automatically detect the printer when it is connected

via the USB interface. Depending on the hardware configuration and the Windows version,

your printer may be Plug-and-Play (PnP) detected when connecting to the USB, parallel, or

serial port interfaces. The printer drivers do not support serial port PnP installation at this

time.The printer’s PC interface configuration for the parallel port must support and have

bidirectional communications for PnP operations.

The operating system automatically starts a “Add new hardware’ wizard when connecting the

printer for the first time to the PC. If you have pre-loaded the driver suite with the Zebra Setup

Utility, then the printer driver will automatically install. Go to your Windows printer directory

and right-click and select ‘Properties’. Click on the ‘Print test page’ button to verify a

successful installation.

The Windows operating system will detect and re-link a previously installed printer if it is

reconnected to the USB interface or if printer power is turned on after the PC has finished its

restart of the operating system. Ignore the new device detected warnings and close the Task bar

prompts. Wait several seconds for the operating system to match the printer to the driver

software. The warnings will quit and the printer now should be ready to begin printing.

Universal Serial Bus (USB) Device Communications

The printer is a terminal device (not a host or hub) when using a USB interface. You can refer

to the USB Specification for details regarding this interface.

Note •

Scanners, scales or other data input (terminal) devices must use the serial port (not the

USB port) to send data to the printer.

Getting Started

Pre-install Windows® Printer Drivers

8/4/10 GX420d™ / GX430d™ User Guide 980611-001 Rev. C

Serial Port and Windows

operating systems

The Windows operating system default settings for the serial port communication closely

match the printer’s defaults settings with one exception; the data Flow Control settings. The

Windows default data Flow Control setting is NONE. The G-Series printer requires data Flow

Control set to Hardware.

Ethernet

This printer option has a variety of methods and utilities to assist with printer connection to a

network (WAN or LAN) and to configure Wired and Wireless (WiFi) printers. The Zebra

Setup Utility configuration wizards support creating a connection to the printer on a shared

network with Windows based systems by using the printer’s IP address. The printer includes

internal Web pages to provide easy access to printer and network configuration. The web

pages are accessible via the printers IP address using any web browser. The free version of

ZebraNet™ Bridge software allows you to centrally deploy, manage, and monitor your Zebra

printers with automatic Zebra

printer discovery up to 3 printers from a single PC screen

anywhere on your global network. ZebraNet™ Bridge Enterprise is available for purchase to

manage larger numbers of Zebra

After Your Printer is Connected

Now that you have basic communication to your printer, you may want to test printer

communications and then install other printer related applications, drivers or utilities.

Testing Communications by Printing

Verifying the print system’s operation is a relatively simple process. For Windows operating

systems, the Zebra Setup Utility or the Windows ‘Printers and Faxes’ Control Panel to access

and print a test label. For non-Windows operation systems, coping a basic ASCII text file with

a single command (~WC) to print a configuration status label.

Test Printing with Zebra Setup Utility:

Open the Zebra Setup Utility.

Click on the newly install printer’s icon to select the printer and active the printer

configuration buttons below it in the window.

Click the ‘Open Printer Tools’ button.

In the ‘Print’ tab window, click on the ‘Print configuration label’ line and click on the

‘Send’ button. The printer should print a configuration status label.

Test Printing with Windows ‘Printer and Faxes’ menu:

Click on the Windows ‘Start’ menu button, to access the ‘Printers and Faxes’ menu or

‘Control Panel’ to access the ‘Printers and Faxes’ menu. Open the menu.

Select the newly install printer’s icon to select the printer and right-click the mouse to

access the printer ‘Properties’ menu.

From the printer’s ‘General’ tab window, click on the ‘Print Test Page’ button. The printer

should print a Windows test print page.

Test Print on a Ethernet printer connected to a network (LAN or WAN) with a

(MS-DOS) ‘Command Prompt’ (or ‘Run’ from the Windows XP Start menu):

Create a text file with the following ASCII three characters: ~WC

Save the file as: TEST.ZPL (an arbitrary file name and extension name).

Read the IP address off the printer’s Configuration Status Label’s Network Status printout.

On a system that is connected to the same LAN or WAN as the printer, type the following

in the Web browser window’s address bar and enter:

fpt (IP address)

(for IP address 123.45.67.01 it would be: ftp 123.45.67.01)

Type the word ‘put’ followed by the file name and enter. For this ‘test print’ file, it would

be: put TEST.ZPL

The printer should print a new Print Configuration Status label.

After Your Printer is Connected

8/4/10 GX420d™ / GX430d™ User Guide 980611-001 Rev. C

Test Print with a Copied ZPL Command File for Non-Windows Operating Systems:

Create a text file with the following ASCII three characters: ~WC

Save the file as: TEST.ZPL (an arbitrary file name and extension name).

Copy the file to the printer. For DOS, a file sent to a printer connected to the system’s

parallel port would be as simple as:

COPY TEST.ZPL LPT1

Other interface connection types and operating systems will have different command

strings. See your operating system documentation for detailed instructions to copy to the

appropriate printer interface for this test.
