Printer Emulations
Printer Emulations are on-printer apps that allow Print DNA capable printers to use a variety of printer command languages, while adding the benefits of manageability and security. Multiple emulations can be downloaded to a single printer, allowing users to choose between command languages as needed. These Printer Emulations are optimized to ensure fast throughput, while delivering high quality labels and receipts. Print DNA printers using Printer Emulations can be easily managed and secured using the Printer Profile Manager Enterprise app.
Printer Emulations can be downloaded to Print DNA capable printers using the Printer Setup Utility for Android and iPhone/iPad, the Printer Setup Utility for Windows, or the Z-Downloader for Windows.
