Can't define label length - ZPL (RW 220)

Question

fellows,

what I\'m trying to do should be simple: to print an example label from ZPL II Programming Guide. But no matter what I write, the label is always printed with 4

Answer 1

I had a similar problem but a different cause (GK420T) - for some reason I had turned of backfeed using ~JSO, and the rest position (~TA) placed the next label already halfway under the print head.

Without backfeed, the printer started from this position so it looked like the bottom of the label was cropped and length and page size was ignored.

Changing the backfeed sequence to ~JSN (default - 90%) causes the printer to roll the label back before printing starts so the whole label is accessible.
