Configuring ZSim on the PD41
ZSim on the PD41 works a bit differently because the printer
only has one key and does not have a liquid crystal display
(LCD).

Configuring ZSim Using Text File Download
Text file configuration is the preferred method to configure a
PD41, but parameters can be set on any printer by downloading
a text file to the printer with the following format:
^ZX[ParamName,]ParamNo,ParamValue^FS
Use the following table to understand the commands required for
setting the parameters. The table also contains a few commands
for making setup changes. To make sure that the update is secure,
download and execute the commands one at a time. You can
verify that the update has been completed correctly by printing a
configuration label.
Note: The default instruction prefix (^) and the
default delimiter (,) are used in the samples at the end
of this section.
