PDF417 barcode printing issue

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

we are using ZPL language to print the PDF417 barcode in ZEBRA label by using SAPSCRIPT. The below code was generated from ZEBRA after designing the label.

^BY1,4^FT430,120^B7N,4,0<(>,,<)>,N
^FH\^FN37^FS

while testing the above code was worked correctly and able to print the barcode in layout. on sudden barcode is not printing at all. I have not done any changes related to barcode. After reading few blogs I have deleted the font and mentioned the code as below.

^BY2,27^FT396,163^B7N,N,,Y,N
^FH\^FN37^FS

Could any one please help me to understand that is there any mistake at above code or to print the barcode do we need to implement any ZPL code.

Thanks in Advance,

Sravan

1) For the actual ZPL, Google "ZPL Manuals", the manuals are very thorough and easy to follow.

2) If it stopped printing after your initial test, then something changed. Even if not the actual ZPL. Some things to consider include

• Did you change the program that tested the output?
• Any change in network
• Any change in the data fields
• Any change to printer
• Any change at the spooler
• Did you print a different label in between? This could change the printer defaults
