Zebra zq520 is not printing zpl properly

I have created an app that will print invoice and converted it to zpl , when I see the zpl code in http://labelary.com/viewer.html , it looks perfect , but when I print this in actual printer , it prints totally gibberish. in my invoice i have an image and some text and numbers , converted zpl code with image and text looks perfect in web viewer but when I print in real device , it is printing logo multiple times but no text is printing .
What is possible reason for this?
My generated zpl command is given below

Hi Mithun
I’ve just tried to print your code on my printer and it was printed exactly as at the preview.
Looks like there are problems in your printer settings. Try a hard reset and also update firmware if the version is not the latest.
 
If the problem will reproduce after that then please share a result of following SGD command:
! U1 getvar "allcv”
You can capture SGD command result following the advice in this article.

If your Zebra ZQ520 is not printing ZPL properly, it might be helpful to check and update the printer's firmware or ensure that the ZPL code is correctly formatted. Additionally, examine the connectivity and calibration settings to troubleshoot any potential issues. Much like troubleshooting a printer, ensuring the correct menu items are selected and the pages are printed accurately is crucial for the Bread Street Kitchen menu. Confirming printer settings and ZPL code accuracy can make both printing challenges and menu printing seamless processes.
