Craig,

Seems I am still having issues getting this to print. I am decoding using
the base-64 from Scott Klement. What CCSID did you translate from/to to get
the data in EBCDIC? I've tried various combinations and none are working.
Thanks!



Lynn McManus

For UPS you have to decode it using Scott Klement's Base 64 and then
translate it to EBCDIC and chop it up using X'25' as line end if you are
using a System I connected Zebra printer.

If you are sending it directly to the printer, you won't have to translate
it, just send the ascii string to the printer via a socket.

I have done both and both work quite well.
I just wrote a UPS routine to get the file from them, parse it, log it and
produce a label (xml tag is GraphicImage) Works great, but now the powers to
be don't want to use UPS, so it's just sitting.

HTH,

Craig

Do you send the text file to a zebra printer?

I've achieved this by base 64 decodeing and saving the data to an IFS file.
I just save it to a text file. Then you can print the IFS/stream file.

Subject: [WEB400] Retrieving shipping label strings from webservices

Hello,



I have RPGLE program that submits SOAP requests to UPS or FEDEX and am
parsing the response to retrieve tracking information. This all works very
well. Now, I am trying to extract the shipping label string that is included
in the response. I can see it. But have no idea what to do with it if I do
parse it out. I believe I will need to decode the data from base 64, ok no
issues with that, but how do I store/send this information to my zebra
printer? I have found zero information yet on hints to figure this out. Any
help would be appreciated.



Thanks in advance,



Lynn
