Frequently Asked Questions

What image types work best for ZPL conversion?
High-contrast images with clear black and white elements convert most effectively. Logos, simple graphics, and line art produce the best results. While color images are accepted, they will be converted to black and white for thermal printing.
How does the image to ZPL conversion work?
Our conversion engine processes the uploaded image through several steps: resizing to fit label dimensions, optimizing contrast, converting to monochrome if needed, and finally generating ZPL commands that reproduce the image on Zebra printers using the appropriate density for your printer model.
What resolution should my images be?
For optimal results, use images with resolution matching your printer's capabilities. For 203 DPI printers, images around 200-300 DPI work well. Higher resolution images will be automatically optimized, but starting with the appropriate resolution yields the best quality and most efficient ZPL code.
Can I combine images with text in my labels?
Yes, after converting your image to ZPL, you can copy the code to our ZPL Viewer tool and add text, barcodes, or additional elements before printing. This allows you to create composite labels with both graphical and textual components.
