Deb,
 
Are those printers on the network? If not, are you using twinax interface to the box?  Could you describle the connectivity as far as protocol and interface.
 
Thanks,

Subject: RE: Printing Bar-Code on HP Laserjet

Hi Dare,
  Boy this information on changing fongs and printing bar codes from the AS400 to some printers is almost impossible to decipher.  The printer manuals tend to be pretty bad when it comes to explaining how to do this.  We have an HP Laser Jet 5 Si printer and I figured out how to do oversized printing and postnet barcode on it.  Between it and the AS400 we have an I-O Print Box Tx interface.  We also have the same interface between the AS400 and a couple of Xerox printers that we have.
  This interface has commands that need to be issued to it.  It then translates the commands into instructions that the printers can understand.  The best part about this is that we can imbed the commands into our spool file and send the spool file to either the HP or Xerox printers.  We don't have to have a set of programs that only sends out HP commands and another that sends out Xerox printer commands.  Then again if you have only one type of printer that is not a concern.
  Anyway, I-O interface command that we issue to print postnet is   ¬B4,1,1,0,1,0,    followed by the zip code, and then  ¬B.  What we actually print is  ¬B4,1,1,0,1,0,44142146079¬B. 
 
Hope that helped some.
 
Debbie

Subject: Printing Bar-Code on HP Laserjet

Hello guys,
 
I know it is possible to print bar-code to Printronix printer by sending bar-code stream data with the data to be bar-coded.  Can I do the same for HP laser printer? If yes, what is the bar-code stream data for HP laser or where can I find the information.
 
 
Thanks,
 
Dare
