am trying to connect to Zebra Printer, Model GK420t, via Android Application in order sendFileContents to the Zebra printer, using the ZSDK, where i need to use the TCPConnection() constructor, in which requires the I.P Address and Port number of the printer as parameters, but i can't figure out how to get the I.P Address and Port Number of the Zebra printer,

Note, am assigning the Port number as the default using "TcpConnection.DEFAULT_ZPL_TCP_PORT"

Please Advise, Thanks in advance,

  • If you have never configured the printer, your best bet is to run the Zebra Setup Utilities available at: https://www.zebra.com/us/en/support-downloads/printer-software/printer-setup-utilities.html#featureforoperatings – Mark Warren Feb 03 '20 at 21:41

Make sure, the printer is on and the coverage is closed.

Press and hold the feed button until the status LED flashes one time. Then release the feed button and a series of status information labels gets printed, including the network settings.

I did that on the GK420t that I currently connect to my laptp via the USB port. My printout does not show anything looking like an IP address. Closest is FIRMWARE showing as V61.17.172

it prints "Printer Configuration" first (20< tabs or so), when its done, press the feed button once more to get the network settings (10 tabs long)
