You can put a blue kit card in the printer and use IPDS if you're attached 
via a Jet Direct card, or you can get the bar codes 'n more font kit from 
HP and use an SCS data stream. There's an example of how to do that on my 
web site. Go for the IPDS if you can. It's a lot more straight forward. You 
just use the barcode keyword in the printer file DDS. Sorry, I don't have a 
reference for the blue kit card, but I could ask a former employer if 
necessary.
