Chapter 3 Utility Preset Image TM-C3400Z presets a background image as if you use previously printed paper media. You can print data over the image. The image registered here is not affected by the print data and can be printed as the background of the print data any time. To disable printing of the image, select "none" in the settings for this item. Workflow 1. Prepare background image data (page 95) 2. Send and set the image as a preset image (page 97) 3. Print Printing from the application prints a registered image on the background. 3 Prepare background image data Prepare image data with a size corresponding to the printer resolution and the size to be printed.
TM-C3400Z preprint accepts PNG file. Image's resolution corresponds to TM-C3400Z zebra emulation resolution (perhaps 203dpi or 300dpi). Let's assume you print 3.5 inch x 2 inch on 203dpi settings. The preprint image width should be then 3.5 * 203 = 710.5. In this case, 710 will be enough. And the height should be 2 * 203 = 406. Of course the ZPL 's Label Length and Paper Width should be 710x406. Set the paper size through Epson Printer Utility or send the command like "^XA ^LL710 ^PW406 ^XZ". 3.5 inch 710 pixel @ 203dpi 2 inch 406 pixel @ 203dpi 95
