Are you testing EXE vs. development on the same computer, logged in as the same user account?

What do you get if you try printing just a few, or even just 1, label from the EXE (rather than 429)?

Do you have another (different) printer you can print to for test purposes?

Are there any images in the labels? If so, are the images available as separate disk files or are they built in to the EXE?

A SWAG, but if your EXE and dev/test folders are different, with different FOXUSER files, try renaming the ones with the EXE.
Regards. Al
