I'm printing to a zebra thermal printer from 2 different systems, a windows environment using BarTender to print labels with a text file as the data source, and an older system (green screen) which prints using command files like below.
My problem is when I print from the windows printer, the printers settings change, so when I then print from the other system, it loses the width and runs off the edge.
I tried to add a print width setting to the code below which didn't work ,^PW700 and could do with some advice! this isn't a language I know much about. I don't know if I used the code in the right way/place or if im using the right code at all? could it be that I need to use BYw?

Thanks in advance
It might be too late to answer this question, but it might help others.
The reason your code doesn't work might cause by comma before ^PW
^LL456,^PW700
So removing it should work on any system:
^LL456^PW700
The usual command code for zpl is
^(command)(parameter),(parameter)...
