Determining Printer Configuration
The G-Series™ printer uses a ZPL printer configuration status label to report the printers
configuration status for both EPL and ZPL operations.The ZPL style label provides a more
intuitive and functionally descriptive naming conventions than the EPL style printer status
label. Operational status (darkness, speed, media type, etc.), installed printer options (network,
interface settings, cutter, etc.) and printer description information (serial number, model name,
firmware version, etc.) are all includes on the status label. See Printing a Test (Printer
Configuration) Label on page 14 to print this label. See Appendix: ZPL Configuration
on page 83 for details on printer configuration and the ZPL commands that control the printer
settings listed on the Printer Configuration Status Label.
To get an EPL style printer configuration status label, send the printer the EPL U command.
See the EPL programmer’s guide for more information on the various EPL U commands and
interpreting the settings displayed on these labels.
Localizing the Printer Status Configuration Label
The printer configuration status label can be localized for up to 16 languages. Use the ZPL
programming command
^KD
to modify the displayed language for most status items on this
label.
See Printing a Test (Printer Configuration) Label on page 14 or Feed Button Modes
on page 70 for information on accessing the printer configuration status label.
Long Term Printer In-activity or Storage
Overtime the printhead may stick to the platen (drive) roller. To prevent this, always store the
printer with a piece of media (a label or paper) between the printhead and platen roller. Do not
ship the printer with a roll of media installed or damage to the printer or media may result.
Thermal Printing
Caution •
The printhead becomes hot while printing. To protect from damaging the
printhead and risk of personal injury, avoid touching the printhead. Only use the cleaning
pen to perform printhead maintenance.
Caution •
The discharge of electrostatic energy that accumulates on the surface of the
human body or other surfaces can damage or destroy the printhead or electronic
components used in this device. You must observe static-safe procedures when working
with the printhead or the electronic components under the top cover.
