check my TRawPrint component at www.torry.net.

Basically you have to bypass the printer driver (therefore don't use 
TPrinter) but just use API Calls (OpenPrinter, StartDocPrinter etc).
What you're sending to the Zebra printer is plain ASCII; similar to 
PostScript there are "simple" <cough> commands to select position, bar code 
font etc. There should be a ZPL reference in your printer documentation.
