About Direct Protocol
Direct Protocol (DP) is a flexible printer language with intuitive grammar similar to that
in English. It allows you to combine pre-defined layout and variable data to construct
labels, tickets and tags. If you use bar code software (such as BarTender), you should
select Direct Protocol (which is a default setting) as your printer command language.
