Do you have a Zebra scanner or a Zebra label printer? Zebra is a brand, and it makes two different devices used with Ebriza, which are installed in completely different ways:
the Zebra label printer (this article) — connects by LAN cable to your local network and is added in Ebriza from the Devices menu; it prints product labels;
the Zebra barcode scanner (for example the DS2278) — pairs over Bluetooth from the iPad's Settings, is not added in Ebriza and does not appear in the device list; it is used to add products to a bill by scanning.
If you have a scanner, go to the article "How to set up a barcode scanner with Ebriza POS NEXT?".
Before connecting the printer to Ebriza, you need to make sure you’ve completed all the setup steps from the printer’s manual, and—very important—you’ve configured the label size you’re going to use.
You can do this with the Zebra Printer Setup Utility mobile app, which you can download on your phone from the App Store.
Media Settings – set the label width and length, which you’ll find on the label roll.
Change the measurement unit from inches to mm in App Settings.
IMPORTANT
The Zebra label printer is compatible with the Ebriza app on iOS, but it only works on iOS versions 16 or lower.
After you’ve configured the printer, connect it via LAN cable to the same network as the other devices in your sales system, then link it to Ebriza:
Go to the Devices menu, then click the Add Peripheral button.
2. Select the Zebra printer from the list.
3. Wait for it to be found on the network, then add the tags and/or the halls for which you want it to print labels.
If the printer is not found, look at the loading bar: if it jumps directly to 100% and doesn’t find anything, the app did not scan the local network at all because the iPad did not grant it Local Network permission. The steps are described in the article “Troubleshooting cash register connection with Ebriza POS / Ebriza POS NEXT” , and they are the same for any peripheral.
