1. Commands
1-1. EZPL
The EZPL EZ Programming Language）is high-level label definition and printer control language. The
features are:
u The data fields are stored and processed until the printing instruction is received.
u All the data can be rotated.
u Images can be downloaded and stored.
There are three basic types of commands
Control 。
Setup。
Label format。
u Cause the Printer to take action immediately, such as cleaning memory, feeding label.

1-2. Language Description
Rules and syntax
EZPL commands have parameter strings associated with them. The command begins with a letter as ID for
each function. The comman ,）is the delimiter to separate each parameter. The “CR”Carriage Return.
Control and Setup commands use the tilde ~）and caret ^）prefix. Label formatting commands has no
prefix. Example: “~Ea,name, length”,”E”is an image download command, and a,name,length）are three
parameters.

1-4. EXAMPLE
To create a label, it must be an order command combination.
Control command
And
Setup up command
^L^L is precedent for the beginning oflabel format
Label format command Label format command must be included
between the ^L and E command
EE is ending oflabel format
** Control or setup commands to be used in the label command area will be ineffective.
Example:
The following programexample is printing a label with EAN8. Programis a text file. No matter what language
you use in programming, simplysend out the text file ofthe contents and you can control what the EZ-Series
prints.
Save the following contents (command file named: EX1.TXT).
Program command Description
^Q25,3 Setting up the height 25mm, gap 3mm
^W32 Setting up the width 32mm
^H10 Setting up the darkness 10
^S6 Setting up the speed 6 inches per second
^P1 Setting up the number of printing 1
^E10 Setting up the paper advance length to 10 mm from the print head after printing. The label will
move back 10 mm when the next label is printed.
^C1 Setting up the number of copies (start value is 1)
^O0 Setting up the auto stripper function to be turned OFF
^R0 Setting up the left margin 0 dot
^D0 Turning the cutting function off
^L The label content of start symbol
BB,42,39,2,5,100,0,1,1234567 Select EAN8 label, data content is 1234567(See Charapter 2 section 2)
