Hi Jim,

While there were are a number of "free" solutions provided to your
problem, you may wish to consider another longer term solution that
would eliminate any issues of printing to HP printers.  The Mapics
application JacanaForms is designed to print to HP and other laser
printers and easily handles bar code placement and alignment.

JacanaForms can manage all of your special printing needs, from bar
coding the shop packets to replacing pre-printed purchase orders,
invoices, etc.  Mapics currently has special promotional pricing through
the end of September (I think it is about 40% off list).

Disclaimer: I work for Momentum Utilities, the developer of JacanaForms.

If you are interested, please contact me offline or see your Mapics
affiliate.

Subject: Re: Printing shop packets & barcodes to HP printers



I implemented the suggestions from the mailing list several weeks ago re

printing barcodes and shop packets to attached HP printers.  Relatively
successful except that the first 2 characters of the item number
description
overprint the last 2 characters of the order number.  Likewise the
engineering drawing number heading overprints the warehouse stock
location
heading.  The overprinting doesn't occur when printing to a 4230.
Anyone
have any suggestions as to what could be causing this?  All other
fields/headings seem to be in the proper locations with proper alignment
and
the barcodes are printing.
