Thank you for the replies Jim and Jeff.

Still no change.

I've reduced the height to 50 and even tried putting the ^BY after the ^BC
to see if it made a difference.  Nope.

I tried ^BY2,2.0 and ^BY2,3.0 and there is no difference in the length. 
It goes short in height (50 dots) but the length did not change.  It is
still long at 1  7/8".
I can specify ^BY1,2.0 and it is half the length but I am trying to get it
just a little shorter, like 1/8" or 1/4" shorter.  I thought by adjusting
the 2nd parameter of ^BY that I could achieve this by maybe I can't.  Does
anyone know?  I'm printing a 14-digit number.

Tks,

Glenn



The BCN,101     (101 is the height of barcode)
The zplII manual says BY overridden by the "height" parm in any
barcode command after the BY (page 175 of current zplii manual online)
I don't have a printer to try it out on, but I would reduce the "101" to a
lower number.

Subject: Zebra Printer - ^BY instruction behavior for barcode


Hi there,

I have a barcode and it just fits on the label with no room to spare.  I
was thinking of shrinking it a touch to give it some more room.  I have
changed the BY instruction and it had no affect.  I would appreciate
some
comments from those more experienced.

With the code below, I changed the ^BY from 2,3 to 2,2 and there was no
change with the label.

^XA
^LH0,0
^FO000,52^BY2,2^BCN,101,N,N,N^FD13284305873841^FS
^FO096,166^A0,N,24,30^FD13284-30587384-1^FS
^FO420,52^BY2,2^BCN,101,N,N,N^FD13284305873841^FS
^FO502,166^A0,N,24,30^FD13284-30587384-1^FS
^XZ
