Later, as you have become more familiar with Zebra Designer and the details associated
with implementing the various receipt objects (bar codes, graphics, fonts and localized
text), you can easily adjust this process to meet your needs and personal preferences.
If your design includes multiple receipts with different receipt designs, then each design
should be created as separate prototype receipt. Combining receipt formats (designs) will
be covered in "Setting Printer Behaviors" on page 31.
Please reference the Zebra Designer (ZD) and ZD Font Manager user’s guides for more
detailed descriptions and procedures. Note: These manuals cover printer options, option
implementations and features not supported by ZPL kiosk printers.
Start with a new (blank) receipt
1. Open Zebra Designer.
2. Select ‘Create a new label’ (receipt) in the Welcome Wizard window.
3. Select the Printer (ZDesigner KR403 or another ZPL kiosk printer model) from the
pull-down menu in the ‘Label Setup Wizard’ (receipt setup) - ‘Select Printer’ window.
Click ‘Next’ when done.
4. The next window of the ‘Label Setup Wizard’ allows the selection of predefined media.
Click ‘Next’ (typical) or select the predefined media installed in the printer and then
Click ‘Next’.
5. From the ‘Label Setup Wizard’s - Paper Size’ window, un-Click the ‘Automatic
Sizing’ check box and leave the ‘Paper Size’ - User Defined pull-down menu
selection. If you know the specific media’s part number that is installed in the printer,
then check for the media number in the pull-down menu list.
6. Set the Media Width. See the printer‘s Hardware Integrator Guide or the "Auto
Selected Print Widths for the KR403 Printer" on page 19. Note: 1 inch = 25.4 mm
7. Set the Media Length and Click ‘Next’ to continue.
8. Set the receipt’s printing Orientation and Print Direction in the ‘Label Layout’
window. Click ‘Next’ to continue.
9. In the ‘Label Dimensions’ window, set the Top Margin and Left Margin if needed.
Do Not Set Rows and Columns.
10. Recommended setting: Change the ‘Unit of Measure’ to ‘dot’ to simplify
visualizing ZPL receipt objects positioning later and allow smallest measure and
increment of change to be used. Click ‘Finish’ to continue. Note: 8 dots = 1 mm with
203 dpi printers.
