Zebra GK420D USB v Ethernet

[Andrew Stead]

Background
10 XP computers each with GK420D USB printer shared out.
Replaced with single Windows print server (tested 2012R2 and Win7) and 10 x Ethernet connected GK420D printers
Issue
Malformed labels. Text from 1 label appearing on another or barcode from 1 label getting added to next label. Example, if the text on label 1 is "BLUE BOX" and the Text on label 2 is "CAR" the result would be label 1 ok and label 2 text would read "CARE BOX" - the "E BOX" from label 1.
Label printing has worked 100% for a number of years running XP / USB
The source of the label does not change (application). Only variable is the interface used: USB or Ethernet.
GK420G USB is 12Mb so change the network speed to 10/half - still same issue

Any help much appreciated.
