Logotypes

Up to 16 logotypes can be stored in the flash PROM of the printer. The logotypes can be
positioned and printed out with a single command <ESC>g.

The exact number of logotypes and their sizes is determined by the total amount of memory
used for fonts, logotypes and loaded firmware. Make a self-test printout to see how much
memory is available.

Loading

Windows software that converts black and white BMP bitmap files to logotypes and load them
into the printer is available on the Zebra web site. If you need to load logotypes in a non-
Windows environment, use the <ESC>&1 command.

File Format

A header containing information about the logotype number, size and logotype name shall
define each loaded logotype. Immediately after the header follows the actual bitmap of the
logotype.
