I use the bigger Zebra S600 for my labels and Code 128. As far as I can tell what Jan said is true on the human readable part. Make sure that on the properties of the label is not set to autosize, I do not autosize my labels just expand it far enough to capture all the barcode. Do you guys like the TLP2844, I just ordered one for a backup and use on smaller jobs. Tom Hart

We print quite a bit of information on the label including a barcode. Our barcode prints on the bottom of the label and is only about 1/16" high. I'm using Code 39 and the only option I have selected is Visible (duh). I think the font and pitch setting are for when you are printing human readable.
