ZPL II is Zebra Technologies Corporation’s registered trademark for
its Zebra Programming Language II. ZPL II instructions sent to a
Zebra printer give you the ability to create a wide variety of labels
from the simple to the very complex. The labels can include any com-
bination of text, bar codes, and graphics.
More Information About ZPL II
ZPL II contains a variety of printable character font styles and bar
codes. Various ZPL II instructions let you position print fields any-
where on a label in a horizontal orientation or rotated 90, 180 or 270
degrees clockwise. Graphic images can be read and interpreted pro-
vided they are in a binary or “hexadecimal format.” Therefore, if you
can convert a scanned or computer-generated image (i.e. image cre-
ated using a draw or paint software program) into hexadecimal format,
you can print it on a label. You can use the ZTools™ for Windows pro-
gram (available from Zebra) to convert the bitmap graphic into the
pure hexadecimal graphic format.
ZPL II instructions consist of a prefix character, a two-character mne-
monic code and, where applicable, a parameter string. The entire lan-
guage is programmable in printable ASCII characters, which allows
easy passage of formats and data through computer networks and pro-
tocol converters. ZPL II instructions do not use escape sequences or
control codes. A few instructions do have ASCII control code equiva-
lents, which are noted as they apply.
