Hi,
We’re trying to print Royal Mail MailMark barcodes which require C40 encoding
throughout.
When we have sent samples to Royal Mail they are being rejected because the c40
Latchcode is in the middle.
Based on my reading this suggests that we are still using default encoding and
not C40 which suggests that the BCXPARMS ENCODE parameter is not working.
We are running PSF 4.3.0 for z/OS and PAGE PRINTER FORMATTING AID/390(PM36617)
(PM36617 being the fix that enabled the BCXPARMS ENCODE parameter for barcodes
but doesn’t mention C40 as an option)
And the device we’re printing to is an IBM Infoprint 4100, ECLEVEL=V12.5.17
I have found documentation on the Web that shows C40 as an option for the
BCXPARMS ENCODE parameter but can’t find any information about what we need to
do to enable that.
We have created a new pagedef and recycled the printer.

Does anyone have any experience of this and can offer up any suggestions on how
to figure this out?
