Some of the Zebra printers have built in realtime clocks, RAM, and support a ZPII command language. They may have to upgrade to get that feature if their current model doesn't support it. I think the S600 model does though. See:
http://www.servopack.de/Files/HB/RTC.pdffor more information on the realtime clock.

>I have to solve an issue but simply put, I don't know how I can do that. Maybe you can help me :).
>I have a drum labeling application developed with Visual FoxPro 8 that works with both Zebra S/600 (
http://www.zebra.com/id/zebra/na/en/index/products/printers/industrial_commercial/s600.html) and Datamax W-8306 (
http://www.datamaxcorp.com/products/w-class/) printers.
>My problem is: I need to print on the label the exact time that the job is being printed. It is not enough to have the time the job was sent to the printer; instead I need the time the job is being actually printed. WTH, I am out of ideas…
