The rpg & dds below will print barcodes,
using TCPIP remote host printing (LPR/LPD) over ethernet 
to a HP Laserjet 4000N, configured as follows:
    ADDTCPHTE  INTNETADR(&ADDR) HOSTNAME((&NAME)) TEXT(&TEXT)
                                              CRTOUTQ    OUTQ(QGPL/&NAME)
RMTSYS(&NAME) RMTPRTQ(PORT1) +
     
               CNNTYPE(*IP) DESTTYPE(*OTHER) MFRTYPMDL(*WSCSTA4) +

      WSCST(QWPHPLSR4) SEPPAGE(*NO) TEXT(&TEXT)
                        
    STRRMTWTR  &NAME
