Reviewing and Optimizing Your Prototype Receipt Design
To finalize the receipt’s prototype, here is a quick check list of areas that can be optimized
(here within ZDesigner). These design suggestions will help conserve printer memory,
speed data transfer and printing, and help you convert your ZDesigner receipt to a ZPL
application delivered receipt.
• Reduce the number of fonts and font sizes where possible.
• Use printer resident scalable fonts (typically Zebra Font 0) or the pre-loaded
Swiss 721 font.
• Use Zebra Font A for the smallest text with the best visual quality of small text.
Note this font does not support as many character or character encoding methods
(code pages, Unicode, etc.).
• Align graphic objects with a preference to the left side for coding purposes.
• Create multiple versions of the ZDesigner receipt for typical receipt length,
maximum receipt length (i.e. instance lists), and different dithering settings when
using non B/W bitmaps.
You are now ready to proceed to configuring your kiosk printer’s media handling
behaviors.
