sh: 1: rlpr: not found

[elioker]

Hi,

I was testing the code from "Printing the labels" but it gives me sh: 1: rlpr: not found error.

require_relative '/var/lib/gems/2.7.0/gems/zebra-zpl-1.1.4/lib/zebra/zpl'

label = Zebra::Zpl::Label.new(
    width:      200,
    length:     200,
    print_speed:3
)

barcode = Zebra::Zpl::Barcode.new(
    data:                       '12345678',
    position:                   [50, 50],
    height:                     50,
    print_human_readable_code:  true,
    narrow_bar_width:           4,
    wide_bar_width:             8,
    type:                       Zebra::Zpl::BarcodeType::CODE_128_AUTO
)

label << barcode

print_job = Zebra::PrintJob.new "my printer name in CUPS"

ip = "my-printer-ip" 

print_job.print label, ip

I'm not sure if the temp file with label is not creating and that's why this problem occurs. Could you help me?

Do you have rlpr installed on your machine?

A bit late to the party... lpr seems to be difficult to install on macOS - does not compile from source and not available from brew - MacPorts have a version but it seems dated. Anyhow - just pass print_services: "lp" to the print function and it works - using CUPS.
