we want to print to a zebra printer attached to a printer server hardware.

We have installed cups on a ubuntu machine and setup the ip and port of the print server but when we send something to print the printer is not responding. The printer is add as ipp/http protocol.

If I use the command

lpr -P Zebra -o raw file.txt

Nothing comes out of the printer but of I use the command without the -o raw parameter prints the zpl commands instead of the label.

Can somebody help me to figure out the right setup for the cups server. I can not change the setup or attached the printer to the ubuntu machine.

Thanks for your help

Answering my own question

I could send zpl commands to the printer attached to this print server, adding it to my cups server as socket://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9101 the trick was to add the 9101 port which is the first port of the print server.

Hope to help somebody with similar issue.
