Paul, About this text to send over, is it a matter what type of fields should
these be defined as on the Iseries? Is it a simple eval =, or is this a need for
biton, bitof etc.



DO you perhaps have a code line sample of this?

Hi Adam,
The VGL programmer's reference for the P5000 class of printer is available
for download from the Printronix web site (http://www.printronix.com). It
includes examples of the text needed to activate the resident bar code
functionality in a Printronix matrix printer. Where the P4280 is a retired
model, I don't know whether it supports building the UPSSHIP bar code or
not.
Best Regards,
/Paul

subject: Printing a Bar code on Printronix 4280

HI I am trying to print a barcode field from an AS/400 RPG program to a

Printronix P4280 printer. We use the E-Twinax as the Controller. If
there
is anyone here who has done this successfully, I would be very
interested
in hearing what steps are needed to accomplish
this.


I believe that I need to use the Printronix language VGL to send codes
to
it, that will tell it that a bar code field exists. THe application
is
for UPS shipping. By hav ing a bar code field on the printout the
operator
can then scan this and get associated information to populate the
screen.

Any help would be so
appreicated,
