Hello, Where is the SDK or where would I find the function that query the class for Job log and days the printer is or was up? I searched for Job Log in the SDK but could not find anything.
I am looking for SDK class/ function code and not printer commands. Please note: Am using Visual Studio 2017 C# . Thank you Rad

Unfortunately, there is no class in SDK that provide the API to access the printer stats. However, there are SGD commands to query the device.uptime, odometer.total_label_count (from which to infer the number of print jobs). Applications has to send the SGD commands to get the stats.

Hi Rad,
What Steven said is correct, but I thought I would clarify more.  For security reasons, the printers do not log the data that is being printed, only the amount it has printed and changes to the configuration.  Zebra printers are used in healthcare and other instances where the data is considered private, so the printers do not even save the print data past the current print job.
