Copy LOGO1.PCX PRN /b | Zebra Technologies EPL2 guide

GM Command - Store Graphics

Example: GK"LOGO1"↵	:deletes graphic “LOGO1” - Required
GK"LOGO1"↵	:second delete graphic - Required
GM"LOGO1"584↵	:Prepares printer to receive graphic
	:“LOGO1”
DATA	: Data string in PCX format

If using a DOS system, the PCX format file (bi- nary data) portion can be sent to the printer us- ing the DOS COPY command. For example, if you have a PCX file named LOGO1.PCX in your current directory, the appropriate com- mand would be:

COPY LOGO1.PCX PRN /b

After downloading, the GI command can be used to verify that the graphic was successfully stored.

Example: First, create a text file “STOREIT.TXT” with an ASCII text editor, as follows:

GK“WORLD”

GK“WORLD”

GM"WORLD"2004

Where WORLD is the name of the graphic and 2004 is the size (in bytes) of the PCX file.

Next, at the DOS prompt, type:

COPY STOREIT.TXT + WORLD.PCX PRN /b
