Firmware

You can find the printer’s firmware version by printing a configuration label. For instructions to do so, see your printer’s user guide. For firmware upgrades go to: www.zebra.com/firmware.
These are important points to note when using a Zebra G-Series printer:
  • You can send instructions to the printer using multiple programming languages: EPL, ZPL, or SGD. EPL and ZPL commands configure the printer, print labels, and get device status information. SGD commands set and get configuration details. These three languages can be used without the need to send the printer instructions to switch from one language to another.
  • EPL, ZPL, and SGD commands must be sent to the printer as separate files. They cannot be used together in one format, or set of commands. For example, if you send a series of SGD commands to the printer and they are followed by a printable format, this needs to be done using separate files.
Many text editors and word processors can recreate most examples in this guide in ASCII format. However, for other encodings such as Unicode, a text editor such as Microsoft Notepad is needed.
