Configuration Utility
Avalanche parameters can also be set using a configuration
utility in conjunction with the Avalanche Console Manager.
This
"
PrintConfig” utility is available for download from the
Zebra Web site at
www.zebra.com.
It must be installed as a
package in the Avalanche Console Manager. Once installed,
it allows the user to set Avalanche parameters via pull down
menu choices and will then create an update file. This file will
then be sent to the printer on the next scheduled Avalanche
update.

You can also configure your printer for Wavelink Avalanche
using the CPCL “get, set, do” commands to perform the same
parameter setings as in the Label Vista set-up procedure.
The following table lists the Label Vista Avalanche settings
and their equivalent CPCL commands.
