Open Browser Print on your Computer
- Once you have installed the driver, click on the upward-facing arrow in the lower right corner of the screen. Right-click on the Zebra icon and choose Settings.
On a PC:On a Mac it will be on the top bar and look like a Zebra: - You will see the printer app open. It looks kind of odd on my computer, and I’m not sure why, but you can still get this done if yours looks odd too. But first, make sure that Broadcast Search is checked.
- Next, click the word Change next to Default D... and accept whatever printer it pulls up. The application will find any available Zebra printer that is either plugged into your computer or on the same internet network as the computer. It might give a dialog box as seen below:
- You should get a screen like this asking you to confirm/set the printer when one is found.
- You will see the device appear in the list when it is accepted.
- Example 1:
- Example 2:
- Next, in the Posabit Portal, go to the product you want to print a barcode. Go to the Product Details or Inventory page and select the product. Skip step 1 if you got to the product from the Inventory page.
- From the Product, select the blue View button.
- Select the associated package tag.
- Select More Details.
- Select Other Actions, then Print Barcode via Zebra Printer.
- From the Product, select the blue View button.
- When you click that, two things should pop up on the screen. One is a dialog box asking
to accept app.posabit.com as an accepted host for Zebra Browser print. Click Yes.- We now see app.posabit.com on the accepted host list on the Zebra Browser
- We now see app.posabit.com on the accepted host list on the Zebra Browser
- The other thing that popped up on your screen in step 7 is this box asking how many labels you want to print. Enter in 1 for now, and hit Print Barcode. The barcode should
print! Your job is done. If the label didn’t print, or you get some kind of error, go to the
next step. - If the barcode doesn't print, go to the Zebra Browser App, select app.posabit.com on the accepted host's list, then hit Delete.
- Repeat steps 6 and 8 to continue printing barcodes.
