Hello IFS Community,

I have been attempting to setup the IFS Print Agent Script Plugin to allow for printing of Labels via a Zebra Label Printer, but am having issues with the Script plugin. While I was able to get the agent setup and working with a regular printer, I have not been able to figure out the script conversion from PDF to ZPL. My biggest question is about the script. They provide a template and while I can fill some of it, am I needing to combine this script with a general Report Layout Plugin script?

What I mean, is that in the portion of the plugin script directions, it lists that to add the plug-in variables, you have to combine the variable name with the Xpath-to-the-variable, which is something that you have to obtain in the report designer:

What is not making sense here to me is that to get these paths in the script file, there has to be a report to select it from in the Report Designer.

I would assume I need my specific report layout available here to be able to choose the correct path from this report design? If so, I am not able to as there is not a layout associated with it. I tried to see if I could open the script plugin after entering what fields I could and then edit the create report layout, but it fails to load the script plugin file, possibly due to nothing being setup in terms of layout and more so is just configuration.

I also viewed the General Report Layout vs the Script layout configurations, and there are fields in both that are not in the other. From what I can tell so far, I need to have a report layout defined in the Layout definitions so I can have a general layout of what the label will look like, but then I also need to add this script plugin information to complete the conversion from PDF to ZPL, but I am not sure where I am suppose to insert the Script Plugin into the Report Design as it does not allow the script to be imported with the information I have filled in. This then does not allow me to gather the X-Paths from the Report Designer function editor. 

So to sum this up, I have gotten the IFS Print Agent Running with a regular printer. I have my logical printers defined for the label printers and I also have the report definition defined but am now needing to figure out how to integrate the script plugin with the layout definitions/report designer. If anyone has a logical process on the order this should be done as well, that would be appreciated!

Thanks!
