Print ZPL in HP Laser

[Parthiban_J]

Hi

We designed Label in Zebra designer and want to print in HP laser jet  using VB.net. 

we exported Label design as text and tried in print in HP laser jet we are getting printing like text not a barcode.

Sample code is below,

 Dim pText As New StringBuilder

pText.AppendLine("^PQ1,0,1,Y^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID000.GRF^FS^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID001.GRF^FS^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID002.GRF^FS^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID003.GRF^FS^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID004.GRF^FS^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID005.GRF^FS^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID006.GRF^FS^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID007.GRF^FS^XZ")
pText.AppendLine("^XA^ID008.GRF^FS^XZ")

MessageBox.Show(pText.ToString.Trim, "Printer Name", MessageBoxButtons.OK)

RawPrinter.SendToPrinter(" printing", pText.ToString, printer) 'print the string

OUTPUT  is as below

^PQ1,0,1,Y^XZ
^XA^ID000.GRF^FS^XZ
^XA^ID001.GRF^FS^XZ
^XA^ID002.GRF^FS^XZ
^XA^ID003.GRF^FS^XZ
^XA^ID004.GRF^FS^XZ
^XA^ID005.GRF^FS^XZ
^XA^ID006.GRF^FS^XZ
^XA^ID007.GRF^FS^XZ
^XA^ID008.GRF^FS^XZ

How to convert  ZPL into HP supported format ?  

Thanks in advance
