Reg. Barcode Printing in Retail Version

First, you need install the driver for your barcode printer.

Software side:
1. Go to Products -> "Print Barcode Labels"
2. Click "Set Printer" to choose your barcode printer.

Before you can print barcode label, you need a barcode format file first.
There are 2 versions format file for Zebra barcode printer, 1 is EPL, and the other is ZPL file.

Normally, we use EPL file, it is more easy to use.

The format file is put in BarcodeFormats Folder under application folder. its name must be zebra.epl.

Please change settings in the file, e.g. label width, height, and gaps; barcode format, e.g. Code39, 128 etc, and stock description, and price etc. information.

After you have a correct barcode label format file, then you can print the barcode from the "Print Barcode Labels" module, or you can print labels from transaction modules.


The barcode format file (EPL one) is like the one below,

You can read the technical document in the CD for the explanation about the command in the format file. The CD should be shipped with the barcode printer (If you bought a new one).
