ThermalLabel SDK 7.0 for .NET

ThermalLabel SDK for .NET is a lightweight class library (DLL) that lets you to design barcode labels and print them to Zebra & Honeywell/Intermec Thermal Printers(1) by writing just pure .NET code in VB.NET or C#.

ThermalLabel SDK can be used for designing and printing from simple to complex labels layout supporting Texts, Barcodes, Graphics and Images, RFID Tags(2), and Shapes like circles, ellipses, rectangles, and lines.

Part of the ThermalLabel SDK solution, we offer to developers a Visual Label Designer component which you can incorporate into your own Windows .NET apps and another one for Web Apps based on pure JS/HTML5 and ASP.NET as the backend! With these WYSIWYG label editors, your end-users will be able to visually design barcode labels within your own apps.

In addition, while designing your labels; you can easily preview it as raster images (BMP, PNG, GIF, JPEG or TIFF) or as Adobe PDF documents. This allows you to work on your .NET developments without the need of having a physical thermal printer for testing.

ThermalLabel SDK supports Buffering, Caching, Data Binding as well as XML Templates.

(1) ThermalLabel SDK generates native printer commands for Zebra compatible printers in ZPL II or EPL commands, and for Honeywell/Intermec compatible printers in Fingerprint commands.

(2) RFID Tags are only available for ZPL and Fingerprint printer models supporting such feature.
