Q:
Printing a barcode from the O specs of an RPG program
RPG, Printing, RPGLE
Specifically, I need information on how to print a barcode from the O specs of an RPG program. I found an example to print a barcode by passing hex in the O specs, but I didn't understand the how to part.

I realize this is an older way of printing a barcode as I am aware of how to use the DDS and RPG combined to accomplish the same thing. However, the software application program already has the printer file in the O specs of the RPG program. Essentially, all I am doing is adding the barcode to the bottom of the printer file in the O specs.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The lone solution I know is to built the list with DDS using the function BARCODE where you can specify the barcode (128,39,...) that you wantto use.
Example :
0007.00 A 1 3'code article '
0008.00 A CODART 10 O 1 25BARCODE(CODE128 *HRZ *HRI)

the printer must be IPDS

Good luck

Thanks for the reponses. I did conclude that the hex codes used in the O specs are dependent on the printer. The printer is a Lexmark T630. I’m going to attempt calling their technical support.

Thanks,
Alicia
