    1. SCOPE This specification applies to the Zebra converter for use with the LE840/LE850 series, general-purpose thermal label printers. 2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION This specification describes the operational procedures of the Z-MODE which converts the Zebra ® ® Programming Language (ZPL II ) to the TPCL command to perform printing.

    3.2 MAIN PROGRAM AND SYSTEM MODE PROGRAM Main Program The main program allows the Oki Data printers to issue labels when they receive Zebra commands. System Mode Program The system mode program enables setting of Zebra command parameters with key operations in the system mode of the Oki Data printer.
  • Page 10: Data File

    3.3 DATA FILE ZEBRAPRM.TXT This is a parameter file described in “Section 5. DEFAULT SETTING.” Usually, this file is automatically created by the BASIC program, but it also can be downloaded by using the Z-MODE Setting Tool. ZDEFAULT.TXT This file contains a table of the initial values to be used just in case a transmission of Zebra commands partly failed, and a font conversion table.

    If the lower-case alphabet for Font B are selected, they are converted to upper-case characters before printing. When the OKI outline font is selected, the print image collapses if there exists other print data in the printing area. When the character type is space (abnormal value) as in "^A o,h,w," it is deemed as “^Ao,h,w" for operation as the space is deleted during receiving operation.
