ZB EPL2 command

I am creating a custom label with Eltron language code and would like to know whether the ZB command overrides the entire orientation even if used at the end of the label? In other words, if the template I use (which I cannot alter) uses a ZT command at the top of the label to turn the entire label upside-down, will using a ZB command at the end re-orient the entire label to right-side-up?

You might try setting up Word for a 'custom' label since it offers that option.
I've done some strange labels by directing Word via that feature.

HI Les1810,

You should be printing faster with Zebra fonts.
Which driver are you using? Version?
I strongly recommend the Zebra Designer V1.3.08, available at Zebra.com

To isolate the problem, capture the output to a file.
Define a local port as C:\output.txt and set that as the port in driver properties.
Now print your document. The printer commands will be in C:\output.txt.

Send c:\output.txt directly to your printer.
For LPT1, use the DOS copy command to send the file. (Copy C:\output.txt LPT1)
For serial connections, use Hyperterm to send the file.
For network connections, use ftp.
No easy USB method is readily available.

Does this print faster than printing the original document from Word through the driver?
If yes, then update your driver.
If no, debug your communication to the printer (LPT1, serial, network, etc.)

SOURCE: print orientation

If you are printing from the included software, it has options for labels with vertical printing. If printing from a third party program, you can go to the dirver settings and change the printing orientation.

Print dosent stop

u have to create your label at printer properties.
if prints doesn't fix your label, this problem appears.
( for 80x40 cm barcode: open printer properties-printing defaults - label size - new custom size or new label - write your sizes at size fileds- and save)
open your app, and create new file, type your sizes for new file, and print it!

I am trying to install a lp 2824 plus zebra label printer and i need to know whether to select epl or zpl?

You should probably select ZPL, but that depends on which program you will use together with the printer.

Currently have a TLP2742 duplicator which prints barcode and text. Need to alter this to just print the text. how do i do it?

Do you know if you are using a label software program to design the label or just ZPL (which is Zebra Programming Language) code direct to the printer? If it is software, then you can open that label design software file and remove the barcode. If it is ZPL, then you need to remove it from the code. I can help with this if you can email me the code.

How Send EPL2 commands to USB

Use the Zebra ZUD driver. Latest version V5.5.7.25 (Download from Zebra website). When driver is installed, go to printer & Faxes folder and double-click on the installed printer icon.

Click Printer/properties/printer/advanced (+)/tools (Click on tools) This opens a text box. Type commands in here and send directly to printer. E.G type U click send and it will print a config sheet.

This definately works.

Zebra label alignment

you can adjust this in the template file for your price tags. how did you create your basic price tag label? in the zebra label creator? if so, make the adjustment there. if you have a .ejf file for your price tag label, you should be able to open it in notepad and add the height in pixel dots with the "q" or "Q" command from the EPL programming handbook. This can be a little tricky, but with some trial and error, you can get it.

PLEASE HELP - Labels are printing in the wrong direction

The ups site ahs a solution to your problem. You need to send a ZT command to the printer to reverse direction
The easiest way to do it is to open the printers properties and go to the advanced tab go to Printing Defaults then select Tools then tools again and a window will popup. Enter ZT and press enter. The Send button should now be enabled. Click on it. DO NOT touch anything else. Close all windows and try printing . If this is not the direction you want , rod and this time enter the ZB then enter. There are only 2 commands ZT and ZB

Good luck
