Identify Fonts in Your Printer

Fonts and printer memory reside in shared locations in the printer.

ZPL programming can recognize EPL and ZPL fonts. EPL programming can only recognize EPL fonts. See the respective programming guides for these languages for more information on fonts and printer memory.

Make note of the following for ZPL font management:

To manage and download fonts for ZPL print operation, use the Zebra Setup utility or ZebraNet Bridge. Go to zebra.com/support.

To display all fonts loaded onto your printer, send the

D ZPL command to the printer. See the ZPL Programming Guide for details. You can identify stored in the various memory areas on your printer by noting their file extensions:

Bitmap fonts use the

.FNT

file extension in ZPL.

Scalable fonts use the

.TTF

.TTE

.OTF

file extensions in ZPL.

EPL does not support these fonts.
