XMLLabel is a powerful suite of applications that enables you to easily convert LabelShop PRO label formats into files that you can download to Intermec XMLReady™ printers. XMLLabel helps you convert, download, and test the label formats. The Intermec XMLReady printers store these converted label formats and then accept XML data files directly from your ERP or WMS system to print labels on demand. The unique architecture of XMLLabel eliminates the need for print server middleware. Understanding How XMLLabel Works Intermec XMLLabel consists of three applications: • XMLLabel Wizard: The XMLLabel Wizard guides you through the process of selecting your LabelShop PRO label format (.lab) file and converting it into an XMLLabel format (.lbx) file that you can download to an XMLReady printer. XMLLabel Wizard also lets you create a sample .xml file and a variable list file (.var) at the same time that you create the .lbx file. You can use the .xml file to print a test label and you can use the .var file for debugging purposes. • Label Loader: Use Label Loader to download the .lbx file to your Intermec XMLReady printer so that when an XML print job arrives from your ERP or WMS system, that data is formatted and printed using the .lbx file. • XMLLabel Print: Use XMLLabel Print to send a test .xml file to your printer. The .xml file contains test data. The XMLReady printer uses the .lbx file to print the test data, allowing you to troubleshoot any problems with the format file. • XMLLabel Preferences: Use the XMLLabel Preferences dialog box if you need to change the target system, keep .pof files for troubleshooting, and remove or include setup values when sending labels to the printer. After you convert, download, and test your format files, you are ready for an XML print job from an ERP or WMS system. 2 XMLLabel v6.10 User's Guide

What Is XMLLabel?
XMLLabel is a powerful suite of applications that enables you to
easily convert LabelShop PRO label formats into files that you
can download to Intermec XMLReady™ printers. XMLLabel
helps you convert, download, and test the label formats. The
Intermec XMLReady printers store these converted label formats
and then accept XML data files directly from your ERP or
WMS system to print labels on demand.
The unique architecture of XMLLabel eliminates the need for
print server middleware.
Understanding How XMLLabel Works
Intermec XMLLabel consists of three applications:
•
XMLLabel Wizard:
The XMLLabel Wizard guides you
through the process of selecting your LabelShop PRO label
format (.lab) file and converting it into an XMLLabel format
(.lbx) file that you can download to an XMLReady printer.
XMLLabel Wizard also lets you create a sample .xml file and
a variable list file (.var) at the same time that you create the
.lbx file. You can use the .xml file to print a test label and you
can use the .var file for debugging purposes.
•
Label Loader:
Use Label Loader to download the .lbx file to
your Intermec XMLReady printer so that when an XML
print job arrives from your ERP or WMS system, that data is
formatted and printed using the .lbx file.
•
XMLLabel Print:
Use XMLLabel Print to send a test .xml
file to your printer. The .xml file contains test data. The
XMLReady printer uses the .lbx file to print the test data,
allowing you to troubleshoot any problems with the format
file.
•
XMLLabel Preferences:
Use the XMLLabel Preferences
dialog box if you need to change the target system, keep .pof
files for troubleshooting, and remove or include setup values
when sending labels to the printer.
After you convert, download, and test your format files, you are
ready for an XML print job from an ERP or WMS system.
