Hello, do you know if that BARCODE keyword works properly with 'mixed' invoice numbers rather than pure numerics. ours are A123456, etc.

There are many different bar codes, some allow alphabetic characters and some do not. I probably don't need to remind you to look at the DDS reference for BARCODE, but you may not know about the Printing Redbooks, which have a lot of good information on advanced printing topics.

My advice is to write a very simple bit of DDS and a test HLL program that sends sample data to your printer. That way you can get used to how the DDS and printer behave.
