1-1. EZPL

The EZPL (EZ Programming Language) is a high-level label definition and printer control language.

The features are:

1. The data fields are stored and processed until the printing instruction is received.

2. All the data can be rotated.

3. Imagescan be downloaded and stored.

There are three basic types of commands:

?Setup

?Control

?Label format

Setupcommands

Contain the printer control instructions, configuration instructions and image downloading instructions.

1-2. Language Description

Rules and syntax

EZPL commands have parameter strings associated with them;

?? The commands begin with a letter as ID for each function.

?? The comma (,) is the delimiter to separate each parameter.

?? The CR [Carriage Return: decimal (13), hex (oD) signifies the end of every command.

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

?? Label Formatting commands have no prefix.

Example: “~Ea,name,length “. ”I” is an image download command, and (a,name,length) are three parameters.
