Introduction
About EZPL
The EZPL (EZ Programming Language) is a high-level label definition and printer control language.
Features of EZPL are as follows:
1. The data are stored to be processed and will not be printed out until the last printing instruction is received.
2. All the printing contents can be rotated.
3. Images can be downloaded and stored.
There are two ways to send printing commands to the printer. One is sending through the command window of
(GoLabel or QLabel), the other is sending through W indows TM HyperTerminalTM via RS-232 port.
The EZPL language consists of three types of commands:
 Setup commands – It includes printer control instructions, configuration instructions and image
downloading instructions.
 Control commands – It includes commands that can control the printer to take action immediately, such as
cleaning memory, feeding label.
 Label Format commands - Define the format of data that will be presented on the label, such as Line,
Rectangle, Barcode, Text and image.
Rules and syntax

EZPL commands include parameter strings associated with them:
1. The syntax of commands contains capital letters as the ID for each function.
2. The lower case letters in command represent parameters.
3. Control and Setup commands use the tilde (~) and caret (^) as prefix.
4. Label Format commands have no prefix.
5. The comma (,) is the delimiter to separate each parameter, and the CR (Carriage Return) signifies the end
of every command.
Example: In “~En,name,size “ command, “E” is an identity letter of this image downloading command; “n”, “name”
and “size” are three parameters.
*All company and/or product names are trademarks and/or registered trademarks of their respective owners.

Setup Commands
Ân - Printing mode
Syntax Ân
Parameter n = D, Direct thermal mode, the ribbon out sensor is disabled.
n = T, Thermal transfer mode, the ribbon out sensor is enabled.
Description 1. If you want to change the print mode, you need to send the printing command to the
printer for changing print mode setting. There are two ways to send printing commands
to the printer. One is sending through the command window of (GoLabel or QLabel),
the other is sending through W indows TM HyperTerminalTM via RS-232 port. To send
printing command, make sure that the printer is on standby mode (LED light is green)
and send below command to change the print mode.
2. Send "ÂD" command to printer to change the print mode to Direct Thermal Mode.
3. Send "ÂT" command to printer to change the print mode to Thermal Transfer Mode.
When printer is on Thermal Transfer Mode, it is necessary to install the ribbon into
printer. Otherwise the error message "Print Mode Error" will be triggered and the printer
will not be able to print.
* Note: this command will not be applied on Direct Thermal only models.

^Gn - Enable/disable See-Through sensor

Syntax ^Gn
Parameter n = 0, disable see-through sensor
n = 1, enable see-through sensor
n = 2, Auto-mode
Description There are two types of sensor in printer: Reflective Sensor and See-through Sensor. Users
can set one of them as active sensor. By default, the sensor setting is set on Auto-mode.
However, sometimes the sensor may not be able to detect the label gap on special label
materials. Then it would be necessary to change the sensor setting to other sensor. For
example, when printing on labels with thick liner, colored liner or back graphics, the see-
through sensor would need to be enabled since the reflective sensor may not work
correctly.
To switch between different sensors, please do as follows:
1. Make sure that the printer is on standby mode (LED light is green) and send below
command to change the sensor setting.
2. Send "^G0" command to printer to set the Reflective Sensor as active sensor.
3. Send "^G1" command to printer to set the See-through Sensor as active sensor.
4. Send "^G2" command to printer to change the sensor setting to Auto-mode.
*For the EZ-1000Plus series, EZ-DT series, EZ-1105 / EZ-1305 and EZPi-1000 series
models, if the see-through sensor is enabled, the moveable Label Sensor must be placed in
the center of the printer.

AT,x,y,w,h,g,s,d,m,data - Print built-in true type font
Syntax AT,x,y,w,h,g,s,d,m,data
Parameter x = Hori of left-top position of text (unit: dot, 1 mm = 8 dots or 12 dots)
y = Vert of left-top position of text (unit: dot, 1 mm = 8 dots or 12 dots)
w = The width of font (8~2000 dot)

data = Data to be printed
*Portions of this software are copyright 2000-Feb-08 The FreeType Project
(www.freetype.org).
Description Print built-in True Type Font (TTF).
Further In width/height AspectRatio mode (m = 0):
Information When the width (w) and the height (h) of TTF are equal, the printing result of TTF will be
exactly the same with W indows font. There is a formula to calculate the Windows font size
from TTF size:
TTFheightsize = WindowsFontsize*dpi/72
For example, if user want to print W indows font 72pt on 203dpi printer, then the
TTFheightsize = 72*203/72 = 203. And the TTFwidthsize should be equal to TTFheightsize,
which is 203. As a result, when the width and height of TTF both are 203, the printout will be
the same with Windows font 72pt.
In Average width mode (m = 1):
The height in dot is calculated the same as width/height AspectRatio mode, but the width is
the average width in dots. If width=0, a 1:1 aspect ratio font is rendered.
Sample AT,48,92,90,90,0,0,0,0,01234ABCDE

AT,50,324,90,90,0,0BTU,0,0,01234ABCDE

【Note】
For conversion: 1mm = 8 dots when printing with 203dpi printer; 1mm = 12 dots when printing with 300dpi printer.

The font style setting is optional setting. It includes 3 types, can be set with none, one, two
or three together:
B  Bold T  Italic U  Underline
0x00)
d = DType  0: ASCII A~Z: Unicode table 1: Transform Text into Image by GoAPP
m = 0  width/height AspectRatio mode
m = 1  Average width mode (refer to Further Information)
Description Print downloaded True Type Font.
Further In width/height AspectRatio mode (m = 0):
Information When the width (w) and the height (h) of TTF are equal, the printing result of TTF will be
exactly the same with W indows font. There is a formula to calculate the Windows font size
from TTF size:
TTFheightsize = WindowsFontsize*dpi/72
For example, if user want to print W indows font 72pt on 203dpi printer, then the
TTFheightsize = 72*203/72 = 203. And the TTFwidthsize should be equal to TTFheightsize,
which is 203. As a result, when the width and height of TTF both are 203, the printout will be
the same with Windows font 72pt.
In Average width mode (m = 1):
The height in dot is calculated the same as width/height AspectRatio mode, but the width is
the average width in dots. If width=0, a 1:1 aspect ratio font is rendered.
