Hi Mr./Mrs.,
Good day , Can you help me resolve my problem regarding printing of Arabic character using the printer GX420t and GX430t.
It’s not working when I tried to print Arabic even I already install the font Swiss 721 BT.

The firmware version of my printer is : V56.17.17Z. is it possible that the version of the printer is not supported Arabic even it’s already installed?

Hi Louie,
The version of the GX420d firmware is the latest and does support Arabic. I don't see anything specifically wrong with your ZPL. Can you send an image of what it is printing?
Also, Make sure you compose your ZPL file in a good text file editor such as Notepad++, then open it in the Setup Utility window. Do not edit or copy and paste into the Setup Utility window as it may change the encoding of the non-ASCII text, even if it shows it correctly.
