最近項目中要實現標簽打印的功能，有幾個條件
- 標簽模板可以事先生成，用的是CodeSoft軟件
- 標簽模板里面有二維碼
- 標簽模板里面有一些變量，要求打印的時候自動填充
- 產線電腦上沒有安裝CodeSoft，即便安裝也不能使用，因為沒有License
從開始計划做標簽打印開始，做了三套解決方案，難度和依賴條件各不相同
- 利用Excel
- CodeSoft API
- ZPL+Win32 API
- 利用Excel
這是一個半自動化的方案，主要想法是在Excel里面做好模板，變量的部分通過編寫VBA腳本，讀取SQL Server數據庫里面的內容進行填充，填充好了之后，手動打印。缺點是沒有辦法生成二維碼。 --- Pass
代碼
Public Sub SynTableConfig() Dim cnn As New ADODB.Connection, sh As Worksheet Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset Dim cnnStr As String, SQL As String '建立與SQL Server數據庫服務器的連接 cnnStr = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Initial Catalog=" & myDataBase & ";User ID=" & myname & ";Password=" & mypassword & ";Data Source=" & serverip cnn.ConnectionString = cnnStr cnn.Open SQL = "select * from sys_table where id='123' order by 表名稱" Set rs = cnn.Execute(SQL) While Not rs.EOF ............. rs.MoveNext Wend rs.Close Set rs = Nothing cnn.Close Set cnn = Nothing End Sub
- CodeSoft API
CodeSoft企業版提供了ActiveX控件，可以在C#中添加對Lppx2.tlb的引用，調用相關API對CodeSoft編輯好的Label文件進行變量替換等操作，然后打印。編程難度不大，但是有個致命限制，要安裝CodeSoft軟件並插入usbkey。公司雖然買了license，但是僅限於工程師編輯Label模板文件，產線電腦上沒有安裝軟件，更不可能插入usbkey，因為很貴。--- Pass
代碼如下
class CodeSoft { string _printerName = ""; public CodeSoft(string printerName) { _printerName = printerName; } public void Print(string labelFileName, Dictionary<string,string> parameters) { LabelManager2.Application labApp = null; LabelManager2.Document doc = null; string labFileName = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + @"\" + labelFileName; try { if (!File.Exists(labFileName)) { throw new FileNotFoundException("File not exsit", labFileName); } labApp = new LabelManager2.Application(); labApp.Documents.Open(labFileName, false); doc = labApp.ActiveDocument; doc.Printer.SwitchTo(_printerName); string printerName = labApp.ActivePrinterName; foreach (string parameterName in parameters.Keys) { doc.Variables.FormVariables.Item(parameterName).Value = parameters[parameterName]; } doc.PrintDocument(1); } catch (Exception ex) { throw ex; } finally { labApp.Documents.CloseAll(true); //doc.Quit(); doc = null; doc = null; GC.Collect(0); } } }
- ZPL+Win32 API
ZPL是Zebra公司的標簽標記語言，描述了標簽上有哪些內容，何種字體，何種顏色等等。大部分標簽打印機應該都支持，最起碼我們的430t是可以支持的。具體打印的思路是利用CodeSoft軟件，生成一個PRN文件（具體怎么生成不知道）。PRN文件里面的內容就是用ZPL描述的標簽。我用程序讀入這個PRN文件，將里面的變量替換掉，生成一個新文件，然后調用系統Native的打印功能，進行打印。
代碼如下
