Why don't you post the code on the U2 wiki, if you can figure out how,
or on Pickwiki.

Marc,
If you are using a small Laserjet or a 9050, why spend extra money on
hardware or software products which might tie you to a specific setup,
when you can use a Basic subroutine to print your Code 128 barcode (or
many other codes) anywhere on the page you want it? I've done the
grunt work and written the program, which uses standard commands built
into the printer. We use this program in production every day - it
works. This assumes you are printing to a piece of printable stock you
can feed through your printer. I will get the latest version of the
program tomorrow and post it. Don't worry - I wrote it, I own it and I
can share it with anyone I want.
Sorry, Tony, I have the greatest respect you you, but printing barcode
is just too easy to pay a lot for it. Now, if you want to print
labels, just buy a cheap barcode label printer like the ones UPS
customers use (Zebra, Datamax, etc.), and send the very simple codes
to it. Used or reconditioned ones are very inexpensive, and new ones
aren't prohibitively expensive.

Quick, maybe not necessarily U2 related, question. We are looking to
generate Code 128 Barcodes from an HP LaserJet printer. Testing on a
4050, but the production printer (yet to be purchased) will be an HP
LaserJet 9050.
I'm leaning toward using a soft font, but was wondering if anyone out
there had any luck with a particular font and see what is being used out
there.
Thanks in advance
