ZebraNet Bridge Enterprise can support Zebra printers that are connected to a PC locally.

Note:  The local port must be available on the PC before attempting to add in ZebraNet Bridge. If you have a printer driver or software application using a local port, that port will not be available in the drop-down list. A message will display in a dialog box that notifies you of any unavailable ports.

Facts:

Printers connected to a local port on the PC have to be manually added.  Supported ports are:

Parallel (LPT), Serial (COM), and USB.
