Zebra Basic Interpreter (ZBI) 2.0

Zebra Basic Interpreter (ZBI) 2.0

Use ZBI to create custom controls and interpret non-Zebra formatted data from other applications, systems, and data input devices (scanners, keyboards, scales, etc.).
Customize and enhance the printer using the ZBI 2.0 programming language. ZBI 2.0 allows Zebra printers to run applications and take input from scales, scanners, and other peripherals without a PC or network connection. ZBI 2.0 works with the ZPL printer command language so that printers can understand non-ZPL data streams and convert them into labels. That means the Zebra printer can create barcodes and text from input received, non-ZPL label formats, sensors, keyboards, and peripherals. Printers can also be programmed to interact with PC-based database applications to retrieve information to be used on printed labels.
  • ZBI 2.0 can be activated by ordering a ZBI 2.0 Key Kit or activated by purchasing a key from Zebra.
  • Use the ZBI Key Manager (also known as ZDownloader utility) to apply the key.
  • An intuitive ZBI-Developer is used to create, test, and distribute ZBI 2.0 applications. The built-in virtual printer allows you to quickly create, test, and prepare programs for use.
