Printing Barcodes

Hi All,

I have a question to post for a programmer in our office.  I will include
her question and then add a little to that.

I am trying to print a barcode using a S36 Cobol program.  I am using
SUBR52.  I have an OVRPRTF statement specifying DEVTYPE(*IPDS).  It
generates a spool file with *IPDS as the device type.  Host print transform
is also YES.

What I'm currently doing will not print out a barcode on a laser printer,
and I would like to know if there is a way to print a barcode to a laser
printer under these conditions.

To Change the program to native is the last option that we want to consider.
To have the customer buy an IPDS printer is not an option.

Thanks
Ron
