BarTender and SAP Console

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We are working on SAP Console,

we are posting the document using the RF Guns and it is posting well,document is creating in SAP.

after posting the document,label should be printed in ZEBRA printer.

We designed label using bartender software,this label contains barcodes as well.

we downloaded the bartender .ITF file into SAP Script using SO10 txn.

but it is printing only text and value are not printing.

Please can any one tell how to print the label using the RF Guns or RFID.

This is urgent and solutions are highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Srinivas.

You can check OSS Note 645158 - New bar code technology for Smart Forms to see how this is done.

Hi there. Have you tested printing barcodes from the BarTender software itself before upload to SAP? If the barcode still does not come out from the software itself then the software is not sending the correct printer controls to your ZEBRA printer. My guess is that it still won't come out even if you print from BarTender.

If the field being printed as a text rather than a barcode then it's most definitely the printer control. I'm not familiar with BarTender as we are using E-Bizco's barcode dll's and PCL barcode server.

If all else fails you could try to create the form using Smartforms. Please see sap help for "New Barcode Technology". With this technology smartforms can print the barcode for you without the need for a separate software like BarTender. So that for me would be a better solution as less things could go wrong. However, this will only work in Smartforms and not for Sapscript.

Please update me on the results then we can continue.

What Zebra Printer are you printing to?

As already mentioned there are specific printers in the Zebra range of products that support RFID encoding.

Hi Srinivas,

RFID printing and Barcode printing are 2 different process.

For RFID printing you a separate RFID zebra printer ( or any printer that support RFID)

Hi Ajay,

Barcodes and other data should be printed on the zebra printer through RFID.

Thanks,
