Need Help ASAP, Zebra/UPS Thermal 2844 And Windows 7  

Thanks everyone for your great support. I followed utalkitypes instructions to a key and everything is working correctly. I never would have figured this out without everyone here. Thanks for sharing your ideas and experiences.

I believe my trouble started with a power outage. I finally took the time today to try and diagnose the issue (hasn't printed for over a month).

I found this very helpful video and it solved my problem. I tested it at UPS's website to make sure. Hope it helps you. It basically resets your printer. Good luck!

I thought I had the solution, but I tried using UPS today, and my labels did not print. So, when all else fails...you have to call them. It was quite a process getting it restored, but it works now and I would recommend you just call them. They will email you the driver, then walk you through install and proper setup within their website.

Support's phone number is: 877-289-6418

To save a bit of time here is the zip file...but don't do anything till you have them on the phone.

It's 2012 and I had the exact problem. I contacted UPS and got the drivers. Here are the links to the download from their website:

Hello guys,
I just registered to tell you what the root of the problem is.

It is because Win7 recognize it as UPS thermal 2844 (The UPS version has a UPS special firmware). What you need to do is to download the ZDownloader and the latest standard firmware from zebra website (Requires registration, about 2 minutes). Then you reflash your UPS thermal 2844 with the standard firmware.

After the flash, you win7 will recognize the printer as a Zdesigner 2844 and you win7 will install all the driver automatically in 5 seconds.

Problem solved. Now I can used my printer for general printing. Also works for ebay and paypal.

This is what I did after couple hours trying to install the UPS Thermal Printer 2844.

Follow the steps in this order.
1.- Download the Zebra driver from this link.
Zebra Windows Printer Drivers.
2.- Unzip the file on his default folder.
3.- Open file manager a look for the file name DRIVERWIZARD.EXE (Computer:Windows:Seagull)
4.- Select the file, right Click and run it as ADMINISTRATOR
5.- On the Wizard Menu choose INSTALL THE PRINTER DRIVERS
6.- On Printer List go all the way down a select ZEBRA UPS 2844
7.- VERY IMPORTANT rename the printer name as UPS THERMAL 2844 Otherwise UPS Online will not find the printer.
IT HAPPENED TO ME that's why I expended some many time back and forth
Follow the prompts if the system ask for restart, restart the machine
8.- Plug your Thermal Printer to your computer
9.- Turn it on
10.- Wait for Windows install the printer by itself
11- If Windows ask for restart, do it again.
12.- Log on UPS.COM and try.
Good Luck.
It works to me after 4 hours looking for a solution.
Ps.. My Thermal printer was perfect on Windows XP.. I bought a new computer with Windows 7 64Bits that's why I have to install the Thermal on the new computer.

Hey....just download and install these seagull drivers for your zebra printer. They work for windows 7 64 bit as well.

Download Windows printer drivers, label printer drivers, thermal printer drivers

Yes.. In fact I have windows 7 64 Bits installed on my computer

Bump to the max!!!!!
