Hi. in Zebra Designer 3 I made a file (label) datamatrix + text. If you just print the file from the program, everything is ok. I then uploaded the file to prn-file (print-save to file). How can I print this file from visual studio? I tried to insert the text of the file into a variable, but not everything is printed and not in those proportions. How can I print the file right away? with zebra sdk there was an example of printing from a file, but I print an empty sheet in general. can't find file

I'm trying to print multiple copies of the same label. Is the only way to do that to loop through the PrintOneLabelTask x number of times or is there a way to tell the printer I just need x copies of this one label?

I found that I needed to try PrintHelper.Connect multiple times with the SDK. Otherwise too many "Unable to determine printer type." errors.
ZebraCardPrinter zebraCardPrinter = null;
Connection connection = new Zebra.Sdk.Comm.TcpConnection(ip, 9100);
zebraCardPrinter = PrintHelper.Connect(connection);
// Retry if card printer null
if (zebraCardPrinter == null)
{
var tries = 3;
while (true)
{
try
{
log.Info("Retry connect to printer at " + ip + ", retries remaining: " + tries);
zebraCardPrinter = PrintHelper.Connect(connection);
if (zebraCardPrinter != null)
break; // success!
}
catch
{
if (--tries == 0)
{
msg = "Unable to find and connect to printer at " + ip;
log.Error("Unable to find and connect to printer at " + ip);
}
throw;
}
Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
}
