Zebra label printer setup and installation

Connection options

USB: Connect the Zebra label printer to your PC/Mac using a USB cable and power it on. Windows/OSX will automatically install the required drivers. No additional driver installation is required.

LAN (if supported): Connect the Zebra label printer to your local network (LAN) using a network cable and power it on. Make sure your network is configured to automatically assign IP addresses (DHCP) or refer to your printer manual for instructions on how to manually configure your printer’s IP address.

Download the Zebra Browser Print application for your specific operating system:

Windows | OSX

Install and run

Once the Zebra Browser Print is installed, open and run the application

End User License Agreement

When prompted, accept the “Browser Print End User License Agreement”

Add security exception

To enable secure communication between your printer and browser, a security exception needs to be added to your browser. When prompted, click OK.

Security warning

Depending on your browser (Chrome was used in this example), you will be shown a security warning. Click “Advanced” and “Proceed to localhost”.

If the exception was added successfully, you will see a message reading “SSL Certificate has been accepted. Retry connection.” When asked if “localhost” should be added to the “accepted hosts list”, click “Yes”.

Open the “Zebra Browser Print” application

Right-click the Zebra Icon in your taskbar and click on “Settings”.

USB: Right-click the “Change” button next to “Default Devices.” Select your printer from the “Device” list (It will have a nondescript number, ie: 28J104800645). In most cases your printer will be preselected. Click “Set”.

LAN (if supported): Check the “Broadcast Search” option and click the “Change” button next to “Default Devices.” Select your printer from the “Device” list (ie: Wired(192.168.0.202)). In most cases your printer will be preselected. Click “Set”.

Log into your Bob Go account and go to a previously fulfilled order. Select “Print Label” from the shipping label dropdown. You will be asked to allow “https://www.bobgo.co.za” access to the Zebra printer. Click “Yes” to complete the configuration and print your shipping label.

Print label

After printing your first shipping label, you need to make sure that the alignment of the sticker is correct – in other words, that all the information is visible on the sticker and that nothing is cut off on the sides. If this is not the case, then it will require you to recalibrate the label printer by holding in the feed button: the LED light will blink once (keep holding the button), will blink twice (keep holding), will blink 3-times (keep holding), until it blinks four times. Only then can you let go of the button. The printer will then automatically feed a few stickers to calibrate and the alignment should be correct.
