Print BMP with ZPL

I just discovered that you need to escape characters above ASCII by first putting ^FH before any ^FD fields that could contain a utf character and you need to prefix the utf-8 hex code with an underscore

_D0_94 will print as Д. My final ZPL code is as follows:

^XA
^LH100,150
^CWT,E:TT0003M_.FNT
^CFT,30,30
^CI28
^FT0,0^FH^FDTesting 1 2 3^FS
^FT0,50^FH^FD_D0_94_D0_BE _D1_81_D0_B2_D0_B8_D0_B4_D0_B0_D0_BD_D0_B8_D1_8F^FS
^FT0,100^B3^FDAAA001^FS
^XZ

I'm just going to have to make a way to generate the escape sequences, which should be much easier!

Late answer, but since this is getting viewed...

The CT line and first set of XA..XZ sequence sets up the modes, label length, printable area, etc.

If you remove those, it will take those settings from the label/printer settings, which is usually what you want. The printers can sense the length and width of the label.

Leaving them in can cause big problems, because if you define the printable area in your label, and then the next label type submitted does not, it will use the settings you have defined -- which can cause blank areas in the label, eg. cutoff USPS Label barcodes that are printed after your Zebra Designer custom labels.

Found this out the hard way - leave those out, and you should leave out of the remaining XA..XZ sequence the MMT, PW609, LL0406, and LS0 as well - your Hello World will not be affected.

If you really want to limit the area printed to, set up margins inside the printable area, etc, refer to the manual.
