Zebra printer not showing in Safari

Published: · 4 min read · How-to
You are already in the app. Stay in this Safari window. Do not switch to a Private window for these steps.

A Zebra printer not showing in Safari is almost never a dead printer. Safari is careful about programs on this computer. Zebra Browser Print is a small program from Zebra. It sits in the menu bar and lets the website send labels to the printer. Safari needs you to say those two local pages are okay, in this window.

Saved labels: If you already clicked away from This Connection Is Not Private, Safari can keep blocking. Remove only 127.0.0.1 and localhost from website data. Leave app.mylabelmaker.com so your labels stay.

How to fix a Zebra printer not showing in Safari

  1. Stay in regular Safari. Keep the app open. Keep Zebra Browser Print open in the menu bar.
  2. Open https://127.0.0.1:9101/ssl_support.
  3. Open https://localhost:9101/ssl_support.
  4. On each page, click Show Details, then visit this website. Come back to the app, pick Zebra Printer, and reload the app if the name is still missing.

If those pages already failed once

Safari can remember that you left those pages. Then the printer list stays empty even when Zebra Browser Print is open.

  1. Safari → Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data.
  2. Search 127.0.0.1 and localhost. Remove those two only.
  3. Do not remove app.mylabelmaker.com.
  4. Open both pages again, click through the warning, then go back to the app.

A Private window does not share this with a regular window. Do it here. More: Private vs regular Safari.

Why is the Zebra printer not showing in Safari?

Safari will not list the printer until it trusts Zebra Browser Print on this computer. If you already left the warning page, delete 127.0.0.1 and localhost from website data, then open those two pages in this window.

Print one test

When the printer name is in the list, print one label. Do not send a whole stack until that test looks right.

Back to the app

Trust those two pages in this window. Then pick Zebra Printer.
