Here is a PDF that should be of help ...

I have not written code to print to Zebra printers in a long time - in 
fact, last was about 12 years ago when I wrote a PHP class to stop the 
insanity of writing code over and over again - just dynamically populate 
what I needed and push that to printer by opening a direct socket to 
defined IP

It is not difficult at all.  I remember the <STX><ETX> tags (or 
something to that effect).  You can just write plain text files (which 
is what they are are after all), parse through these files using filePro 
file IO functions, and simply insert your fields value where needed and 
push the resulting document to your target printer.

I may be able to dig up my PHP class or at least some snippet of code if 
it comes to that, just let me know.

This is becoming a BIG thing with food companies because of new Food Safety Law. Labels and tracking for everything.
