Bill, Select the barcode Right click Select Configure
See if playing with the Bar Width and Wide Bar Ratio do anything for you.

The barcode is not autosized. The label I'm printing is a 1" high by 3" wide. The barcode is for UPC-A. One of the configuration settings for UPC-A (AutoSize Font) in the label designer cannot be changed because it is an UPC-A control. Besides the barcode, I want to print the ItemCode to the left of the UPC-A barcode. I can't do this as I need mort horizontal width which I had hoped to pickup by shortening the width of the UPC-A barcode. I cannot figure out how to do that part. I've changed the font etc., with no joy. The TLP2844 works well. The tech support is excellent as well.

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.

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.

I am using a Zebra TLP2844 label printer. My barcodes print just fine, everything is good. Here is my question: I want to narrow the barcode which is located on the right side of the label so I can place other information on the left side of the same label. No matter which font or pitch size I use on the barcode (A DBBarcode object UPC-A barcode type), or how I expand or shrink this object, it always prints the same size on the label. Can anyone gather a guess as to how I might accomplish this ? Thanks in advance. Bill Eyring
