Hi all,
While creating a ZBI program for a ZT410 printer, I am trying to open port USB host (the one on the front of the printer) for data input. The idea is to use a barcode scanner directly connected to the printer to input variable data that will then be included in the label to be printed.
I have checked the ZBI programming manual, but only the following ports are included:
Port/Connection > ZBI Name > Preferred Access Commands/Functions
Serial > "SER" > OPEN, CLOSE
Parallel > "PAR" > OPEN, CLOSE
USB > "USB" > OPEN, CLOSE
ZPL parser > "ZPL" > OPEN, CLOSE
TCP Server > "TCP", "TCPX" > SERVERSOCKET, SERVERCLOSE, ACCEPT, CLOSE
TCP Client > "TCP" > CLIENTSOCKET, CLOSE
UDP Server > "UDP" > SERVERSOCKET, SERVERCLOSE, ACCEPT, CLOSE
UDP Client > "UDP" > CLIENTSOCKET, CLOSE
Email Sender > "EML" > OPEN, CLOSE
Bluetooth > "BLU" > OPEN, CLOSE
The instruction in which it would be included would be the following:
40 OPEN # 2 : NAME "USB_HOST" --> Where "USB_HOST" has been my last try
Can anybody help providing the correct ZBI name for that port?
Thank you in advance for your help
