Barcode Label Printing Software

Is the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer compatible with other CognitiveTPG barcode printers?
No, the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer was designed to provide an alternative to refreshing legacy desktop printer applications. All other CognitiveTPG label printers use Cognitive Printer Language (CPL) as the primary programming language. DLX and C-Series also include the EcPL and ZcPL emulations same as the EZ-LP but the EZ-LP printer will not print using CPL programming language. Additionally, the serial port on the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer is designed to work with standard RS-232 DB9 (wired straight through) cable. All printers include international print capability incorporating multiple code page and support for Unicode UTF-8 character sets.

How else does the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer differ from CognitiveTPG DLX barcode printers?
In order to keep the price competitive but still exceed the performance of most installed desktop printers, the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer offers 8 MB RAM & 4 MB Flash memory. The DLX printer provides 16 MB RAM & 8 MB Flash memory. The EZ-LP does incorporate a new media holder which will accommodate inward or outward wound media rolls up to 5 inches (127 mm) in diameter.

What kind of media can be used on the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer?
CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer will work with direct thermal labels or tags in either outward or inward wound configuration. Maximum media roll OD is 5 inches (127 mm) and it can use media with 1 inch (25.4 mm) or 1.5 inch (38.1 mm) core ID. Media width range is 2.0 to 4.25 inches (51 to 108 mm). The printer is set up for direct thermal mode printing only.

What is included with the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer?
The base model includes Serial (DB9), USB-A (host), and USB-B (device) communications interfaces. Optional communications interfaces are Parallel Centronics or Ethernet. Other options are a peeler and/or RTC (real time clock). The shipment includes the printer, power supply, power supply cord, and Quick Start Guide. The communications cables required for the printer are common industry standard cables and are not supplied with the printer. If necessary, these cables can be ordered separately.

Are popular linear and 2D barcode symbologies included?
Yes, but the printer runs in one of two emulation modes so the supported barcode symbologies differ slightly between EcPL and ZcPL. Reference the EZ-LP Datasheet for more information.

Are the EZ-LP printer drivers Windows compatible and does Cognitive Administrator Utility support it?
Yes, additionally the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer can be set-up to run with some legacy printer drivers as well.

What language emulations are supported for a drop-in compatibility legacy printer replacement?
The printer uses EcPL and ZcPL program language emulations for compatibility with other competitor brand desktop printer label formats.

When should an end-user buy an CognitiveTPG EZ-LP barcode printer in place of other legacy printers?
Many legacy desktop label print applications can be refreshed with the CognitiveTPG EZ-LP direct thermal barcode printer but new applications or situations of business improvement might require such features as moveable sensor, 300dpi resolution, Cognitive Programming language, or increased print speed and/or memory which would require our DLX and C-Series models. The EZ-LP is based on a proven mechanical platform offering greater durability than installed legacy desktop printers.
