When the Terminal sends data to the host, it sends it in the following format:

Terminal ID + DATA + CR

Typically, the data is simply a string of characters, but in the instance of data coming from the magstripe reader, there are some additional characters you need to be aware of. The magstripe reader sends its data in the following formats:

Track 1:

T1: DATA

Track 2:

T2: DATA

Track 1&2:

T1: DATAT2: DATA

So, when the 802 RF Terminal transmits the data to the host, it will be in the following format:

Terminal ID + T1: DATA + CR

or

Terminal ID + T2: DATA + CR

or

Terminal ID +T1: DATA + T2: DATA + CR

For further information, see your Printing Systems Programming Manual on the CD ROM shipped with the printer.

Zebra QL 320 Printer

The QL 320 Printer is used for label printing. It doesn’t have Magstripe input. The classic application is for printing shelf labels during shelf price verification:

1.The operator scans a shelf label.

2.The Terminal transmits scanned data to the host computer.

3.The host computer looks up the price, description, etc. and transmits the computer price back and sends the necessary commands to the attached QL 320 printer to prints a new shelf label with the correct price.

4.The terminal operator then peels off the label and applies it to the shelf.

Each printer is shipped with a no charge roll of thermal paper that can be used for development, including determining the exact label size that best fits you needs and the capabilities of the printer.
