Certain parameters, including the communication parameters, are password-protected by 
factory default.

The first time that you attempt to change a password-protected parameter, the printer displays 

ENTER PASSWORD

. Before you can change the parameter, you must enter the four-digit 

numeric password. After you have entered the password correctly, you do not have to enter it 
again unless you leave Setup mode by pressing 

SETUP/EXIT

 or by turning off (O) the printer.

At the password prompt, use the left oval to change the selected digit position.

When you have selected the digit that you wish to change, use the right oval to increase 
the selected digit value. Repeat these two steps for each digit of the password.

After entering the password, press

 NEXT/SAVE

.

The parameter you selected to change is displayed. If the password was entered correctly, 
you can change the value.

The default password value is 1234. The password can be changed using the Zebra 
Programming Language (ZPL) command 

^KP

 (Define Password) or using the printer’s web 

pages (ZebraNet

®

 PrintServer II, 10/100 Print Server, or Wireless Print Server required).

You can disable the password protection feature so that it no longer prompts you for a 
password by setting the password to 0000 via the 

^KP

 ZPL command. To re-enable the 

password-protection feature, send the ZPL command 

^KPx

, where 

x

 can be any number from 

1 to 9999.

Do not change password-protected parameters unless you have a complete 

understanding of the parameters’ functions. If the parameters are set incorrectly, the printer 

may function unpredictably.
