Bill, 

  

A 48 size font for 123456789 (nine characters) 

is 3 1/2" wide by about 7/16" tall.   If the human readable 

font really needs to be this big, you will have little room 

for the bar code.   Is this the correct parameter? 



If so, turn the print human readable character option on the 

barcode to be OFF.  The place a variable text or a DB text 

field holding the barcode data and have it's font set to 48. 

You can place the field where ever you need. 



To change the size of the UPC barcode, this is done by 

modifying the bar width and wide bar ratio on the barcode itself. 

UPC-A has restrictions on these settings.  I believe Rbase will 

tell you if you are out of range. 



Hope this helps.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Bar Code Printing Question 

I have a Zebra TLP2844 label printer to print UPC-A barcodes. 
  
I need to print a human readable barcode along with a 9 character part# side 
by side on a 4" wide by 1" high label. 
  
The font size needs to be 48. No matter how I change the settings for the 
bar code or the part#, I cannot get the label to print properly. 
  
Whats really annoying is that using the Zebra Designer software, I have NO 
PROBLEM printing what I need. My customer is getting anxious about this. 
  
Can anyone suggest a solution or work-around ? 
  
Thanks,
