EasyCoder E4 Direct Protocol v2.10 – Programmer's Reference Manual
A label layout is made up of a number of fi elds. There are fi ve
different types of fi eld:
• Text Field
• Bar Code Field
• Image Field
• Box Field
• Line Field
There are no restrictions, other than the size of the memory, on
the number of fi elds on a single label.

Bar Code Field
(with interpretation)
Text Field

Image Field
A text fi eld consists of a single line of text.
A bar code fi eld consists of a single bar
code, with or without a bar code interpre-
tation in human readable characters.
An image fi eld is a picture, drawing, logo,
or other type of illustration in bitmap
format.
A box fi eld is a square or rectangular non-
colored area surrounded by a black border
line. If the border is suffi ciently thick, the
whole area may appear black.
A line fi eld is a black line that goes either
along or across the media path. A short
but thick line can look like a black box.
