Is it possible to print barcodes on an LaserJet 6p without using BARCODE SIMM? When I print something now I don’t see a barcode. :confused:

Yes. I've done it with ELP (Enhanced Laser Printing). ELP does the same like the Barcode Simms but in software. Nice tool and available for Solaris.
Look at www.stethos.com (http://www.stethos.com).

I have solved the problem by using bwprint.

IMHO one of the biggest disadvantages of bwprint is that if you use it you cannot use the barcodefonts. And with this fonts you can do more then only barcodeprinting :) .

We have solved the issue by using Form Designer.

What is Form Designer ?

Hello,

by using ELP extensions, you're able to print directly to PDF with Overlays.
Sending E-Mail with PDF attachment from BaaN using embedded BLAT a. s. o.

Nice Tool :)

One more reason for ELP (Software):
Printing 2D-Barcode on all Laserprinters in PCL Mode is possible.
Only a little driver in $BSE/lib/.....
I've had realized it on Kyocera, where no 2D with "BARC commands" is possible !

And it works !

For PDF we are using only free tools and a little Baan/shell programming (only one dll call inside the report if you need Overlays i.e. for invoices and a shellscript as printer device in baan. Without overlays no modification of the report is needed). Has been a nice little project. Similar to ~Vamsis solution, but with a dedicated Linux server for creating/sending the PDF by mail and without extension/modification of the ttstpconf. The server is responsible for Baan PDF and Windows PDF (Windows PDF has been first. We didn't want two servers for the same thing and so we started looking for a way to use the server for baan also. The server does also some more things).
Do you know the PCL to postscript tool (ghostpcl)? Very usefull if you want to use the same baan printer driver for PDF and your paper printouts :D.

BTW: ELP is a really nice tool
