Detailed Description

A class used to obtain the status of a Zebra printer.

using LinkOS.Plugin;
using LinkOS.Plugin.Abstractions;
public bool PreCheckPrinterStatus(IConnection connection)
{
    // Check the printer status prior to printing
    IZebraPrinter printer = ZebraPrinterFactory.Current.GetInstance(connection);
    IPrinterStatus status = printer.CurrentStatus;
    if (!status.IsReadyToPrint)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Unable to print. Printer is " + status.Status);
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}
public bool PostPrintCheckStatus(IConnection connection)
{
    // Check the status again to verify print happened successfully
    IZebraPrinter printer = ZebraPrinterFactory.Current.GetInstance(connection);
    IPrinterStatus status = printer.CurrentStatus;
    // Wait while the printer is printing
    while ((status.NumberOfFormatsInReceiveBuffer > 0) &amp;&amp; (status.IsReadyToPrint))
    {
        status = printer.CurrentStatus;
    }
    // verify the print didn't have errors like running out of paper
    if (!status.IsReadyToPrint)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Error durring print. Printer is " + status.Status);
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}
