Yes it is a printer on LPT1. Well IF it is indeed a permissions problem then
I would guess its permissions on the barcode printer im trying to print too
because if I change the printer to my LaserJet it prints fine with no
warnings or errors.
However looked on the PHP manual comments it said this:
"If you need printer_write you must to change the datatype:
printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_MODE, "RAW"); "
so my code:
<?
function getPrinter($SharedPrinterName) {
global $REMOTE_ADDR;
$host = getHostByAddr($REMOTE_ADDR);
return "\\\\".$host."\\".$SharedPrinterName;
}
$handle = printer_open(getPrinter("ZebraZ4M"));
printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_MODE, "RAW");
printer_write($handle, "Text to print");
printer_close($handle);
?>
The warning goes away but it doesn't print!! :( Nothing in the apache2 error
logs :(
Im stuck, any ideas?

I'm intrested on this function too, did you tried to print locally let's
say to LPT1 ? this will jelp you debug if it's the case that you can't
print or acces a shared resource.
