We have a big issue within our company where the end user will print a number of labels, but the ribbon/media will run out before it finished printing the batch.
Frustratingly, the end user will - instead of replacing the ribbon/media - just walk away.
When the next person comes along, he/she will initiate another print job then realize the media/ribbon has run out so will replace.
Problem with this is the Zebra printer will continue printing the previous batch which then is intermixed with a new batch of printed labels. If the end user is not paying attention, he/she will collect a mixture of labels which is causes a quality concern.
What we would like to do is have the ability to cancel all print jobs once ribbon or media has run out.
Is this possible?

I am facing the same problem. Were you able to find any solution to this?
Hi Ian,
There is a cancel all command that you could try. You can use the ZPL version of the command, ~JA, or the SGD command:
! U1 setvar "formats.cancel_all" ""
These commands can be found on pages 220 and 734 of the ZPL Programming Guide. They should clear out everything in the printer's internal buffer.
