1 Introduction 2 Using VuePrintTM Configuration System What does the “Z” mean? How to Use VuePrintTM Label printers talk a variety of different languages! Our printers usually use their own Citizen language but we have created a version that specifically understand the ZPL® language from Zebra®. The VuePrint menu system is used to make changes to the settings of the printer. Please refer to the Quick Start Guide for more details on its operation. You can access the VuePrint system by switching on the printer holding down the [MODE] key. So your CLP 521Z or CLP 621Z printer understands this ZPL® Machine Information language instead of the normal Citizen language. This section of the print out will give you details specific to your printer, such as the version of firmware, total distance printed by your How does this affect me? printer and the media sensor or optional interfaces. In normal operation, you will notice no difference in operation of your printer. It will still print labels in the same way and media and ribbons are loaded in exactly the same way to a normal printer. Current Menu Settings The “Page Setup”, “After Print” and “Interface” menus are exactly the same on these printers. However, the System Setup menu has some different parameters. Please refer to the other quick-start guides for details of media loading and operation of the printer. However, the configuration and setup of some of the printer’s internal settings will be a little different. This may not affect you either if your printer can be used in an ‘out of the box’ configuration. What does this guide say?

This changes the ‘command codes’ that the printer recognizes as actions for the printer. You will only need to change this for specific customer applications. - The “Media Power Up” option (either On or Off) determines whether or not the printer feeds the paper to the top-of-form (start of a new label) when the printer is turned on.
