  • `but it only work with 2 byte of hexadecimal` - this is not what the manual says. The manual says *There must be a minimum of two characters designated to follow the underscore*, where the "character" is one hexadecimal digit. – GSerg Jul 23 '20 at 16:14
  • Hi GSerg, so i can't print 3 hexadecimal on ZPL? because it says only support 2 byte hexadecimal? – JASON ALBERT SOEGIHARTO Jul 24 '20 at 03:25

    It does not say it supports two bytes. It says it requires at least two characters after `_`. `c3` is two characters, `c` and `3`. Have you actually read the manual? There is even sample code there. – GSerg Jul 24 '20 at 07:22

The utf-8 sequence for U+2393 is 0xE2 0x8E 0x93. Using your example, you would encode that as:

^ASN,36,20^FH^FD_e2_8e_93^FS

This assumes the font you have mapped to S supports that code point.

  • Hi, Mark, i already try use ^CI28 and print that code ^XA ^CI28 ^ASN,36,20^FH^FD_e2_8e_93^FS ^XZ but it print a blank page ( i try ot on labelary.com ) – JASON ALBERT SOEGIHARTO Jul 24 '20 at 03:22
  • @JASONALBERTSOEGIHARTO That would mean the font does not support it. Consult "Exercise 7 • Asian and Unicode Encodings" from the manual that shows how to select a font that supports the characters. If your font does not support the characters, also see `~DU`. – GSerg Jul 24 '20 at 07:37
