Isn't a zebra printer a barcode / label printer ?? they normaly ship with their own specific software which may include programming examples for various 'main stream languages' that you'll either have to adapt or opearte with srod's ComMatePlus.

You could also try printing directly using the excellent PrinterLib ( http://www.purebasicpower.de ) - it's what I use with dymo and brother label printers.
