TLS Connection Demo

Table of Contents

Important Information

This software utility is strictly for demonstration purposes only. The certificates it uses or generates contain Zebra specific attributes. Customers should generate and deploy certificates with their specific attributes and other desired parameters such as validity period, key type and size. See Zebra’s PrintSecure Administration Guide for further details and instructions (accessible via the PrintSecure product page link below).

Overview

This demo shows how data sent to Zebra printers can be encrypted. A TLS connection is created using certificates deployed to printers.
The demo will deploy a self-signed certificate to your printer and includes its root certificate in the Java security store.
A sample Java application sends label data over the TLS connection.


Requirements

  • Windows 10.
  • Printer running Link-OS version 5 or later.
  • Wireshark (optional).

Instructions

Download and run the zebra-tls-demo.exe file.
