Just read the Practical Manual. You can download it at Pixologic.com.

Welcome to the wonderful world of ZBrush!

I agree, the Practical Guide is really useful. You can find a link to it by clicking on the Quicklinks button at the top of this page.

If displacement maps using ZBrush are something you want to find out more about there is some very useful material on the subject in a thread started by Pixolator titled: Rendering ZBrush Displacement-Maps In External Renderers.

Oh, one more thing: if maps and displacement are your primary interest you might want to focus some attention on learning the Projection Master feature. That will help you the most on that subject and lead you to some related topics that may also be of interest.
