Setup Zebra Compatible Driver on Windows

Driver Compatibility:

The Zebra driver is required for the printer to work with these specific desktop software on Windows:
* Stamps.com Desktop Software
(this doesn't include going to stamps.com website to print a label)
* FedEx Ship Manager Desktop Software
(this doesn't include going to fedex.com website to print a label)
* Endicia® DAZzle Desktop Software
(this doesn't include going to Endicia.com website to print a label)
* QuickBooks Enterprise Desktop Software

If you do not know or use the above software, then we suggest you install the Windows Standard printer driver.

Advanced Information:

Both the Standard driver and Zebra compatible driver work the same except for the following desktop software:
1. If you want to support the above DESKTOP software, you must use Zebra compatible driver.
2. If you want to use Bartender software (to design and create your own label content), you must use the Windows Standard driver.
3. You can have both drivers installed at the same time, but it is not recommended, because both drivers share the same USB port and it hides one of the drivers under the Printer & Scanner, it is not obvious seeing it to update the driver's settings

Installation & Setup:

Install the Zebra printer driver by following the instructions below, or by watching  this driver setup video on Youtube.

- Click this link to  download Zebra Compatible printer driver for Windows, then after the download is complete, double-click the downloaded file to run the installer.

- When prompted to choose a Zebra model, using your Arkscan model choose the following Zebra model:
2054A, 2054K, 2054N printers -  choose model 'Zebra LP2844'
2054K-AP (Auto-Peel) printer - choose model 'Zebra Z4M Plus (203dpi)'
3044C printer - choose model 'Zebra Z4M Plus (300dpi)'

- When prompted to select which USB port to assign the printer during the installation. Select one of the available USB ports, usually USB0001 or labeled 4BARCODE; if you are unsure which port to select, or there are multiple port options available, please see the image below on where to find the exact port using the 'Device Manager'.

NOTE: Do NOT manually create a USB port! If the computer can detect the printer, there will automatically be a USB port listed. Below is an example of which USB port # to select.

Most common issues

The following most common issues are ONLY applied this particular 4x6" shipping label.

A. It prints the sample shipping label across on two pages
Solution: Please follow the step 3 "Choose stock (label size)" to check if 4x6" was chosen since renaming the printer name can reset the printer driver's settings.

B. The printer blinks in red after it prints
Solution: The label and printer have not been calibrated, see how to calibrate.

C. Printer's LED light is in solid red, the printer's cover seems not close firmly
Solution: Simply press down the printer's cover to close it firmly.

D. Printer advances a page when it prints blank content
Solution: Go to the printer's driver's Printing Preferences > Page Setup > Advanced Options > Printing Position > set for both "Horizontal Offset" & "Vertical Offset" to 0 (zero). And make sure your paper label media type is "Direct Thermal", and NOT "Thermal Transfer" by looking up your product description.
