Printer Fonts
The ZD-Series printer supports your language and font requirements. The ZPL ™
programming language provides advanced font mapping and scaling technology to
support outline fonts (TrueType ™ or OpenType ™ ) and Unicode character mapping as
well as basic bitmapped fonts and character code pages.
The printer’s font capabilities are programming language dependent. The ZPL and the
legacy EPL programming guides describe and document the fonts, code pages, character
access, listing fonts, and limitations for their respective printer programming languages.
See the printer programming guides for information on Text, Fonts and Character support.
Zebra has variety of utilities and application software that support font download to the
printer for ZPL and EPL printer programming languages.
Important • Some factory installed ZPL fonts in your printer cannot be copied, cloned or
restored to your printer by reloading or updating firmware. If these license restricted ZPL
fonts are removed by an explicit ZPL object delete command, they must be repurchased
and reinstalled via a font activation and installation utility. EPL fonts do not have this
restriction.
