We have a receiving label program which creates barcode output to an
Intellitech 48AS printer, using a standard BARCODE(CODE3OF9) DDS
statement.  We recently purchased a Printronix T5304 printer to provide
additional receiving label output to, but are experiencing problems with
the labels that are printing via the Printronix (most notably the labels
appear to be rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise).

 

We've contacted the printer vendor and have referenced IBM's info on
printer device programming.  No matter what the keyword change in the
DDS, we are unable to get correct label output on both printers using
the same DDS.

 

Does anyone have any specific experience with this issue, and/or able to
provide any insight?

 

 

Sincerely,

Jim
