Does anyone have sample code for sending print messages from CompactLogix processor to a Videojet printer.

Hello, My previous topic was want to establish communication CP1E --> Videojeet Printer using RS232 serial cable. this project test SUCCESS. by the way distance from printer and PLC was very far almost 500meter. so printer technical team request to use tcp communication using cat5e cable. Problem: 1. I'm using TCP communication protocol that need me to have open,send,receive,close port. 2. Communication testing with PC Hyper Terminal --> OK but HT need in waiting call mode, i don't know why. 3. Using printer no result show. how i'm suppose to know communication already establish? 4. Communication setting on PLC Setting-Built in Enthernet need to add other communication device.? here i'm share some programs to give more understanding. Thanksm TCP with printer.cxp

Hi guys, currently working on the communication with videojet 1620 printer (Continuous Inkjet Marking), in there operators manual (http://www.videojet.com/content/dam/Countries/North%20America/Operator-Manuals/CIJ/1620-Operator-Manual.pdf)  the say : - How to Configure Ethernet Port Refer to WSI/ESI Communications Protocol addendum for more information. But cant find this addendum anywhere in the web, all i did found is this pdf attached "Videojet 1510 and 1210 Simple Communications Protocol". I'have try it with th eprinter using the Ethernet port and all i can find open is the FTP(21), 3000, 3001 and VNC(5900). An d i have send same packets from the WSI/ESI to the print via 3000 and 3001 with Packet Sender but the response was empty!! is there any one that know this protocol ESI/WSI or did work with this printer or simillar ?   i found this info in the FTP folder : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <CONTROLLER_INFORMATION>     <START_DATE date="07/09/2016"/>     <HARDWARE BoardType="CSB4"/>     <VERSIONS>         <WINDOWS_CE Eboot="4.0.3" CE_Image="2.0.9"/>         <SOFTWARE Type="Excel" Version="1.0.423.0" SVN_Build="28116M"/>     </VERSIONS> </CONTROLLER_INFORMATION> 180020947-Videojet-WSI-Protocol.pdf
