Cut The Large Page On Thirds
Hello,
I started same topic in Bartender part of this forum http://forums.seagullscientific.com/index.php?/topic/3092-catch-print-job/
In short, file from customer generating three kanban labels on A4 page and I need to print every kanban label on Zebra 220XiIII Plus. If I set the page size on Zebra for kanban size then the Zebra printed just every first label from every page. Before few minutes I got an idea. Can I reach my goal with setting the page size on zebra on A4 and somehow tell to cutter to cut the large A4 label every 93mm? The problem is I didn't find this option in seagull or yebra drivers. Can you help me with this? I'm affraid that I must use ZPL script for control the cutter this way.
Any other idea how to solve this problem is welcome :-)
Thank you for any suggestion

What sort of media do you have in your printer and what label sensor, if any, are you using with it? For example, are these labels with gaps (per Kanban label rather that "A4" page), or is this continuous (uncut) label stock that it cut to size by the printer's cutter?

Unfortunately the media is continuous without gaps or marks. Printer using cutter to fit the media to proper size.

I'm really not sure I understand your problem. You're printing to a Zebra printer to print Kanban tags that are to be cut individually on a per Kanban/tag basis. Why then would you not create the page size in BarTender to be equal to the size of the Kanban/tag with a cut per label/page? The fact that three of these tags together make an A4 size doesn't seem to be relevant as you're not printing to a laser printer. Am I missing something here?

You're right in every point. The problem is that we have new Access file for every day from out customer. The access file generate the kanban by it self and print it on default printer. There's no option, we can just click on the button "print kanban" and access generate the kanbans on A4 and print it on system default printer. We can't set the page size or any other options.
That's the reason why I dealing with this problem. We have three kanbans on A4 and we need to print it on Zebra correctly, not as image :-) Costumer don't have description of Access file so it's difficult to generate kanbans from Access with Bartender.
