LinkOS_Xamarin_SDK Index Page

Provides classes for interfacing with Zebra printers using Xamarin as a development tool.

I want to...

• Add LinkOS_Xamarin_SDK.nupkg to my development environment project
• Print over TCP/IP
• Print over Bluetooth
• Create and print formats
• Send files to the printer
• Query printer status
• Print graphics
• Find more information

Tips for developing with this API...

1. As a best pracitce, Zebra recommends not making calls to our API from the GUI thread. Use a seperate Thread or Task to accomplish this.
2. Each ZebraPrinter object should only be used on a single thread
