See Pete Hall's web site at: http://www.inwave.com/~peteh/  Select the 
"Barcoding with HP printers" link at the top.

btw, if you're 100% determined to use RPG 400 instead of RPG IV, you don't 
need BITON/BITOFF: use the hex literals you need like this:  MOVELx'03' 
  HEX03  1, or define them using named constants.
