Try asking the people who know: Software Support | Zebra[^].

ZPL is pretty straight forward, and well documented. See the Programmer's manual: https://support.zebra.com/cpws/docs/zpl/zpl-zbi2-pm-en.pdf

If you're new to ZPL, the manual starts off with some simple examples. If you have google-chrome available, there's even a ZPL printer emulator that you can play with here: Zpl Printer - Chrome Web Store[^]

One note about the emulator: If you change the print orientation (e.g. right-to-left), the emulator resets to left-to-right after each print job. The real printer stays in right-to-left mode until either a new print orientation command is sent, or until a printer reset, either power or software.

Does one have to really get into ZPL or will the windows printer driver take care of all that?

No idea. I did all my ZPL programming on a Linux box. Testing and learning were all done with text files and curl. I'm old school I guess.

You said in your original question that you already have a program that prints some labels. Does it use an SDK, or just send ZPL commands to the printer? If it uses an SDK, you'll have to track that down and get the docs for it. Otherwise, see the programmers manual noted above, and make the changes you need.
