Introduction

About EZPL

The EZPL (EZ Programming Language) is a high-level label definition and printer control language. Features of EZPL are as follows:

1. The data are stored to be processed and will not be printed out until the last printing instruction is received.

2. All the printing contents can be rotated.

3. Images can be downloaded and stored.

There are two ways to send printing commands to the printer. One is sending through the command

window of (GoLabel or QLabel), the other is sending through Windows

The EZPL language consists of three types of commands: ♦ Setup commands – It includes printer control instructions, configuration instructions and image

downloading instructions.

♦ Control commands – It includes commands that can control the printer to take action

immediately, such as cleaning memory, feeding label.

♦ Label Format commands - Define the format of data that will be presented on the label, such as

Line, Rectangle, Barcode, Text and image.

Rules and syntax

EZPL commands include parameter strings associated with them:

1. The syntax of commands contains capital letters as the ID for each function.

2. The lower case letters in command represent parameters.

3. Control and Setup commands use the tilde (~) and caret (^) as prefix.

4. Label Format commands have no prefix.

5. The comma (,) is the delimiter to separate each parameter, and the CR (Carriage Return) signifies the end of every command.

Example: In “~En,name,size “ command, “E” is an identity letter of this image downloading command; “n”, “name” and “size” are three parameters.

HyperTerminalTM via RS-232 port.

One is sending through the command window of (GoLabel or QLabel), the other is sending through Windows HyperTerminal printer is on standby mode (LED light is green) and send below command to change the print mode.

2. Send "^AD" command to printer to change the print mode to Direct Thermal Mode.

3. Send "^AT" command to printer to change the print mode to Thermal Transfer Mode. When printer is on Thermal Transfer Mode, it is necessary to install the ribbon into printer. Otherwise the error message "Print Mode Error" will be triggered and the printer will not be able to print.

Syntax

^Hx

^Gn - Enable/disable See-Through sensor

n = 1, enable see-through sensor

Users can set one of them as active sensor. By default, the sensor setting is set on Auto-mode. However, sometimes the sensor may not be able to detect the label gap on special label materials. Then it would be necessary to change the sensor setting to other sensor. For example, when printing on labels with thick liner, colored liner or back graphics, the see-through sensor would need to be enabled since the reflective sensor may not work correctly.

To switch between different sensors, please do as follows:

1. Make sure that the printer is on standby mode (LED light is green) and send below command to change the sensor setting.

2. Send "^G0" command to printer to set the Reflective Sensor as active sensor.

3. Send "^G1" command to printer to set the See-through Sensor as active sensor.

4. Send "^G2" command to printer to change the sensor setting to Auto-mode.

When the width (w) and the height (h) of TTF are equal, the printing result of TTF will be exactly the same with Windows font. There is a formula to calculate the Windows font size from TTF size: TTFheightsize = WindowsFontsize*dpi/72 For example, if user want to print Windows font 72pt on 203dpi printer, then the TTFheightsize = 72*203/72 = 203. And the TTFwidthsize should be equal to TTFheightsize, which is 203. As a result, when the width and height of TTF both are 203, the printout
