  "There is no support for two-dimensional bar codes in the AFPDS to ASCII
   Transform code within Host Print Transform (HPT). Therefore, MaxiCode,
   PDF417 and Data Matrix bar codes cannot be printed on ASCII laser
   printers. They can only be printed on IPDS printers that have support
   for these types of 2D bar codes in their printer firmware."

Does the "Marknet" device (I'm not familiar with these) provide IPDS
with support for PDF217 in it's firmware?
