I am interested in your logic for your msg instructions, I have a jet3 also that we talk to with a PLC5 and RSView32 with a vba code inside the RsView32. I would like to talk to the printer from the PLC5 or upgrade to a control logix controller.
 
I have a similar problem.

PLC: Compact Guardlogix 5380 (5069-L320ERMS2)
Printer: Jet2Neo Leibinger
Connection by: TCP/IP

I have tried with Cip Generic ( read/write Socket, socket create and deleteSocket) without success

is there someone with examples or managed to do it?
