Shipping Lable creation in

Printing Zebra lable using asp.net


Ones create any lable in Zebra Designer Pro and click on Print and slect Print to file that will generate text file , dyanmically need to change printing code

Code:

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes;
