Unknown PIOS Exception

[Former Member]

Helle everybody.

I am trying to print to Zebra QL 420 on PSION Workabout Pro (PPC2003 / MI 7.0 Sp09/ Connector 1.1.6 / QL420 driver 1.1.6).

The following code is the printer call:

printer = Printer.getGraphicPrinter();
PrinterFont font = printer.getFont(Printer.MEDIUM_FONT_CONFIGURATION);
printer.drawText(font, 50, 10, "Ausbau", GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);

I get the following exception after the drawText method is called:

I am not sure what this error means. I already tried this with the same driver on

Symbol device and it worked. Could this be a problem regarding the bluetooth

connection? Or does it mean, that I am trying to use an unsupported driver

functionality?

Best regards,

Sascha

Hi again.

Meanwhile I've found out that this error means, that the driver does not support the

called function. But the driver description of SAP mentions that the drawText

method is supported.

Strange thing. A I can print lines but no text?!?!

Cheers,

Sascha
