How can i print .txt with .zpl code inside in VB.net?

Question

Actually i need to print a .txt file, inside the .txt i have a mask for printers Zebra (.zpl instructions). When i send to print the document, the printer, printing the code and not the mask. What can i do?

Visual Studio Community 2019 Zebra ZT410 by USB port

Private Sub ImprimirQR_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ImprimirQR.Click
   'prueba.Text = "^XA\" + vbCrLf + "^FO100,100" + vbCrLf + "^A0, 35,35^FDCODIGO QR^FS" + vbCrLf + "^FO100,200^BQ,2,10" + vbCrLf + "^FDHM,A" + CadenaQR + "^FS" + vbCrLf + "^XZ"
    'Try
    '    ZPrinter.PrintLabel(1, prueba.Text)
    'Catch ex As Exception
    '    MessageBox.Show("Error: " + vbCrLf + ex.ToString)
    'End Try

end sub

Unrelated, but use & instead of + when working with strings. — CruleD, Aug 07 '19 at 16:54
Do you mean the printer is printing the actual ZPL code and not what the code is supposed to render? — EdHayes3, Aug 08 '19 at 15:46

Here is my answer to the same question. Send String to printer

Also if you intend to send a file, use this command instead

RAWPOSPrinter.SendFileToPrinter("<NAME OF PRINTER AS IT APPEARS IN DEVICES AND PRINTERS>", "<FILE NAME OF FILE THAT CONTAINS ZEBRA COMMANDS>")
