The EasyCoder PF4i Compact Industrial supports the unique and fl ex-
ible Intermec Fingerprint v8.20 programming language, which allows the
user or third-party developer to create custom-made application pro-
grams and label formats in a BASIC-like environment.
The printer is also designed to work with the Intermec Direct Proto-
col programming language, the Intermec InterDriver and Intermec
Labelshop. The InterDriver allows you to print labels from standard MS
Windows applications, for example Microsoft Offi ce.
The EasyCoder PF4i Compact Industrial supports 15 scaleable Uni-
code TrueType and TrueDoc fonts as standard. Additional fonts can be
downloaded into the printer’s Flash memory, or be plugged in using a
CompactFlash card. The Unicode standard allows the use of special char-
acters for various languages including non-Latin fonts, such as Arabic,
Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Hebrew, and similar.
A version of EasyCoder PF4i Compact Industrial, that supports the
Intermec Programming Language (IPL), is described in a special User’s
Guide.
