I need to be able to print the warning symbol as a symbol (preferably not as an image), not sure how to accomplish this. I am new at ZPL and EPL2, I really need this urgently for EPL2 but ZPL will do. I have tried to print symbols, it works, but only two character hex values. I need 4 characters to make a warning symbol, namely 0x26A0. How do I do that?

If you want to print the warning as a symbol, you need to make sure that the symbol is encoded in the font library on the printer. You can refer to the Zebra Code Pages to check if the warning symbol you want to print exists. If it doesn't exists, then you won't be able to print as a symbol. Or you will have to find the font library that has the symbol and install the font library onto the printer. Usually, the font libraries use unicode to encode the characters and symbols. It's either UTF8 or UTF16.
