# Bluetenshops Label Print Helper - Angel Green Waldshut |
|
# |
|
# Pre-configured for: |
|
# Shop: https://waldshut.angelgreen.de |
|
# Printer: Zebra label printer. The product-label-generator outputs a PDF, so the |
|
# Zebra receives it via the /print-pdf path (SumatraPDF -> Windows driver), |
|
# NOT raw ZPL. Same product-label size as Jestetten. |
|
# Windows: 10/11 |
|
# |
|
# Tiny HTTP listener on localhost that supports: |
|
# POST /print-pdf - body = PDF -> silent print to the Zebra via its Windows driver (product labels) |
|
# POST /print - body = ZPL -> raw-ZPL path, UNUSED here (product label is a PDF) |
|
# GET /status - health check |
|
# |
|
# Run: |
|
# powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File label-print-helper.ps1 |
|
# |
|
# Auto-start on login is handled by install-helper.ps1 (Startup shortcut). |
