The EZPL (EZ Programming Language) is a high-level label definition and printer control language. 
Features of EZPL are as follows: 
 
1. 

The data are stored to be processed and will not be printed out until the last printing instruction is received. 

2. 

All the printing contents can be rotated. 

3. 

Images can be downloaded and stored. 

 
There are three types of commands in EZPL: 
 
♦ 

Setup commands – It includes printer control instructions, configuration instructions and image 
downloading instructions. 

♦ 

Control commands – It includes commands that can control the printer to take action immediately, such as 
cleaning memory, feeding label. 

♦ 

Label Format commands - Define the format of data that will be presented on the label, such as Line, 
Rectangle, Barcode, Text and image. 

 

EZPL commands include parameter strings associated with them: 
 
1. 

The syntax of commands contains capital letters as the ID for each function. 

2. 

The lower case letters in command represent parameters.       

3. 

Control and Setup commands use the tilde (~) and caret (^) as prefix. 

4. 

Label Format commands have no prefix. 

5. 

The comma (,) is the delimiter to separate each parameter, and the CR (Carriage Return) signifies the end 
of every command. 

 
Example: In “~En,name,size “ command, “E” is an identity letter of this image downloading command; “n”, “name” 
and “size” are three parameters.
