Resolution

  • Printing labels using the Crystal Reports runtime shipped with the Sage ERP X3 is relatively costly in terms of performance, and results in labels that are not necessarily perfectly readable when they include bar codes (15% readability in some cases for complex bar coding).
  • The setup of ZPL printing (Zebra printers) in X3 has been implemented in Sage ERP X3 V6 to cater for this issue.
  • The attached document describes the step-by-step set up of ZPL printing in X3.
  • It does not cover Zebra programming as it is assumed that this is mastered by the consultants implementing this solution on customer sites.

Note: This is for v6 only

For V11+ please refer to the UCC/GS1-128 KB linked below
