Jeff, The old subject has gotten too long a buried to deep. I'm copying your last message here and respond as follows:
"Kay,
You said earlier that you used ICE. Did the same hang tag that you want to use now, print properly in ICE? If you still have access ICE, the hang tag label file should still be there. Post it here on the ng and we (the ng collectively) can see if we can change it for RMS.
Your message:
"You say you buy the hang tag from a Canadian outfit, can you the give us part number and a website so we can get the dimensions of the label?
The printer will work, but as you have found, RMS will not print every label size available for Zebra without customization. You or someone else must create the label file for the specific label that you want. A sample Zebra label file was included with RMS to use as a template for you or someone else to modify, in addition to the KB articles I sent links to you earlier. "
My clarifications:
The ICE POS uses the generic/text printer driver. I only need to specify the size of the tag, never saw the codes behind it and don't know where to find it. The software is free with a small mailing charge. You can get it if you like.
1) In the RMS, I can manipulate the labels fine and create the exact sizes I need.
2) Typical hang tags do not come on a page like labels This is where the problem comes in. Hang tags on a letter sized page are from Canada, too expensive for large quanities in the long run.
3) Zebra hang tags come in a roll. Individual tags are connected by a perforated line. Here's the link to the tags:
4) In our retail world, the Eltron/Zebra printers are as popular as the Epson printer, but not in this MS world (?????)
5) Question again: Has any one used the hang tags (NOT LABELS) printed by the MSRMS? If yes, which printer and which tags?.....
