Is there a way to calculate the total width of Zebra Font 0 given text? Consider the following ZPL command, **^XA^FO100,150^A030,30^FDSample Text^FS^XZ** Here both character height and width is 30 dots. I want to calculate the actual width of this text in mm. Please note that printer DPI is 300.............. Font 0 is a variable-width font (not monospaced like some of the others), so the width of the text will depend on the text itself. One option would be to switch to a built-in monospaced font like font C, where each character is always 10 dots wide and the intercharacter gap is 2 dots wide

fellows, what I'm trying to do should be simple: to print an example label from ZPL II Programming Guide. But no matter what I write, the label is always printed with 40mm length. This is the code: ^XA ^LH0,30 ^FO20,10^AD^FDVERSUL^FS ^XZ I tried changing the label's settings in the printer's properties, tried to add the ^LL command, set units to dots. I'm using the console from Zebra Setup Utilities, and I've already changed the language to ZPL. Nothing changed. Do you know what I'm doing wrong or if is there any other place I should change the label's settings? BTW: the printer is working

Due to a new EU law every food packaging label has to outline possible allergy-causing ingredients by either styling them bold or underlined in the ingredients list. Currently I'm printing my labels via ZPL to zebra printers. I checked the ZPL manuel 1 & 2 and didn't find way how to print something in bold or underlined. Is there any way to do this? Example: "Ingredients: water, sugar, milk, cheese, chocolate" SHOULD BE NOW: "Ingredients: water, sugar, milk , cheese , chocolate" My current label code for the ingredients is: ^CF0,15 ^FO13,245 ^FB530,2,,L, ^FH^FD__VAR_INGREDIENTS__ ^FS Thank you

We have a lot of old ZPL labels. We would like to be able to print them from a web client. The printer is connected to the client and not the server. We have had a few ideas: Print from Silverlight. Not feasable. Seems to be no way to print "raw" to Zebra from .NET without calling COM object and that is not posible from plain Silverlight. From Silverlight, treat the ZPL as file and file copy it to printer. Local printer must be setup as shared. Does work from Silverlight Out of Browser with elevated trust. But if posible we would like to avoid Out of browser. If Zebra printer is set to use

I have a Zebra GK420d connect to OS X via CUPS. However, when I send files to it that are written in ZPL or EPL they are only printed in plain text. Am I required to change to mode on the printer? Contrary to what others said, you don't need to specially add a raw queue. Instead, you can submit raw files into any queue using -o raw switch: lpr -P CupsPrinterName -o raw path/to/label.zpl Printer name can be found over that link in CUPS: http://localhost:631/printers/ This also works on other platforms that use CUPS, like Linux. You can create a raw CUPS queue with lpadmin. Here's the command
