I have purchased a Zebra iMZ220 printer Bluetooth. However filemaker is no recognising it as a Airprint printer. Any suggestions?
FileMaker Go
12
ios
My iPhone does connect and print using the Zebra app.
Thanks for your comments Marcus.
I don't really understand because according to the the pub the printer is fully compatible with iPhone,iPad etc. And I can Bluetooth pair the iphone and printer.
So AirPrint is not BlueTooth?. If so can FM be configured to print via Bluetooth?
Cheers
Steve
Airprint is WLAN, I'm afraid that Zebra did implement iOS only via their own app'
:-(
You might config Zebra as a network-printer via your Mac and use former known AirPrintActivator, now HandyPrint which pretends your Mac is a AirPrint device:
if You are on a Mac, there is also 'Printopia', enables almost any printer for iOS. I got among Xerox Lasers a Brother QL500 - printing from iOS..
There was an app made specifically to talk to filemaker and zebra printers... You can print PDF's from filemaker and also send data through a URL.
Check out www.mobiprintapp.com
With MobiPrint can, also need buy more prints.
Thought that this could be interesting - but I'm a bit confused... the manual says 'connect via USB or Bluetooth' - nothing about 'Airprint'. Maybe Zebra needs its own app' to connect to iOS - in this case, it seems 'normal' that FM can't handle that printer via Airprint.
