Installing & Configuring Zebra Browser Print (Windows) v1.0
Purpose:
This guide will show you how to install Zebra Browser Print on Windows Systems and how to configure BearTracks to use
it for label printing.
Requirements:
- BearTracks 2021.1.0r2 or higher.a
- A Windows 10 Desktop or Laptop.
- A Zebra Label Printer must already be installed on your system.
- Administrative Rights on your PC to install this utility.
- A copy of Zebra Browser Print.
o Download from here: Zebra Browser Print.
o Select ‘Download Browser Print For Windows PC’.
o Complete the form to be able to download the utility.
3. If desired, change the Start Menu folder that the application shortcuts will be installed to, otherwise click Next.
a. The default value is acceptable unless you prefer to install the shortcuts into a different directory.
8. Zebra Browser Print will inform you that the certificate must be accepted in your browser before you can use
the utility. Click OK.
Your browser will now open and you will see a warning similar to this screenshot.
9. Click the Advanced button, then click on ‘Proceed to localhost’ or ‘Continue to localhost’.
a. Here are example screenshots from Google Chrome.
b. The screen may vary in Internet Explorer 11 or Safari.
10. When prompted that ‘localhost wants access to your Zebra Devices’, click Yes.
a. We can also now see that localhost has been added to the ‘Accepted Hosts’ section of the Browser Print
Settings.
11. In the Browser Print Settings window, click on the Change button for the ‘Default Devices’ section.
a. The utility will attempt to find your connected and powered on Zebra label printer.
i. If multiple devices are found you will want to identify the correct device using the serial number
of the label printer.
b. Ensure the device type is Printer and that your device is the one shown then click Set.
At this point the Zebra Browser Print software is successfully installed and we have set your label printer as the default
device to be used in the program. Next, we will configure BearTracks to use this print method for label printing.
4. In the pop-up window, change the Label Print Method to ‘Zebra’s Browser Print App’.
6. Once the Loading screen is done, click the drop-down menu for ‘Package Printer’ and select your Zebra Printer.
a. The serial number of the printer is shown and should match what was used previously.
7. Click the label printer icon to the right of the Package Printer drop-down menu to perform a label printer test.
a. If the label did not print, please review the steps above to ensure nothing was missed.
b. If the label does print, but is off-center, the label printer needs to be calibrated, but this means the
process worked.
8. Click Save when done.
