Holiday Break - Dec 22 to Jan 6

Zebra DevCon 2023 has come to an end, and we are incredibly grateful to everyone involved – attendees, sponsors, panelists, speakers – who made this event a remarkable success.

Following the success in Berlin and Turin, last week we had the privilege to represent Zebra for another edition of Droidcon London. - read this blog to learn more about our experience.

In this blog, we'll explain how to configure the printer and how to build a listener and an error viewer pages in PHP with a MySQL database on the back to store the alerts.  

All the Link-OS printers support the HTTP-POST protocol to send messages from the printer to a webserver. These messages contain information about the printer status and possible error status, so, if correctly used, this feature can be used to monitor a fleet of printers. 

Recently, we have discovered a Bluetooth connection issue between some newer iOS devices and some latest Zebra printer models. The symptom of the issue is that the Bluetooth connection gets disconnected periodically approximately every 60 seconds. The symptom is visible on the Bluetooth Settings of the iOS devices, where you can see the Bluetooth Settings screen automatically refreshes itself, drops the Bluetooth connection and reconnects a few seconds later.

Zebra DevKitchens are on-site events and workshops where ISVs and developers can interact with Zebra products and tools and learn how to better integrate their solutions with Zebra products.

To adapt to our current global outbreak, our DevKitchens will be interactive, online virtual workshops.

Nowadays, most of our Zebra printers are equipped with Bluetooth (BT), Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) or both (BT + BLE). There is a Bluetooth User Guide for Zebra printers, which covers how the Bluetooth technologies (both BT & BLE) are used in Zebra printer production lines, the security mode, pairing and configuration, etc.
