I'll give it a shot.

How much data do you have in the barcode? Do you have it as one big ole

I haven't done any Zebra printers, but I've done Datamax...

I think I defeated the "page size errors" on mine by using the following

    TRANSFORM(*YES) MFRTYPMDL(*WSCST) WSCST(*LIBL/QWPDEFAULT)

Of course, I have no idea whether your enviornment is the same as mine --
so your mileage may vary :)
