Hi

How can we print 2D-Barcode (Data Matrix Code) out of Baan IVc running on a UNIX machine?

Data Matrix Code regarding EEC 200.

Check out the product RMCis (http://www.rmcis.com/products.html) has - looks pretty cool. In my case it looks a heck of a lot easier that writing the ZPL code that my zebra printers use.

I guess that does not really answer your question, but yes you can print 2D barcodes out of Baan. In my case I will create a report which contains the ZPLII code used by the Zebra printers that we use - then I will just send it to the printer using the lp command. Currently I have a sample file that I test using lp, it works but is no where as "perty" as the RMCis solution. It also looks like a bear to maintain.

Give www.stethos.com a look. They are distributing a software called ELP, which prints 2D or 1D barcodes directly from Unix. The printers have to speak PCL. I've tested it on HP UX and Windows with laserjets and a Minolta copy maschine. Works fine :) . Demo versions for nearly all OS are available on their web site (no functional limits, just the word demo in all output. Works for 30 days on Win, at unix I don't know the limit).
