Odd Label Printing Issue...

Featured Replies

I'm working on printing labels that are 2.2" wide by .25" tall. The catch is the labels are in sets of 3 on the roll coming out of my Zebra TLP printer. So there's 3 labels stacked for a total print area of 2.2" width x 3/4" tall, then an 1/8" space, then the next label, etc..

So for printing there is one record per 1/4" label or 3 records for the total print area of 3/4".

From note pad for testing, I can have 10 lines to represent 10 records. All 10 lines are printed and the gap between labels is reconized properly. However in FM, only the first 3 records are printed. FM doesn't continue onto the next set of 3 records, etc.. It just prints as if there's are only 3 records.

I am printing records being browsed and have played with the layout as a label, etc...

Has anyone encountered anything like this?

Many thanks....

May sound trivial, but did you check to make sure that you were printing All pages instead of just 1?

Yes, I did... I wish it was that easy...

I know that FileMaker has had issues with Zebra printers and drivers in general ( from Personal experience )

See here as well

You may want to try playig with the settings on the Zebra to see if it helps.

Boy... I talked to Filemaker and they so far have acknowledged there's a printing issue.

They're suppose to call me back, well see if that happens...

Looks like I'm screwed... cause playing with all the setting within the Zebra printer, makes no difference....
