Printer Bar Codes

u201CPrinter bar codesu201D are bar codes that are specific to a specific printer. These bar codes

actually have the commands and parameters hard coded for each separate bar code

symbology and derivative. This is known as SAPu2019s u201Cold bar code technology.u201D You will

also need to create new u201Cprinter bar codesu201D if you wish to change any parameters such as

ratio, narrow bar width, or height. You should try and avoid this u201Cold technologyu201D if

possible.

System Bar Codes

u201CSystem bar codesu201D can either use the u201Cold barcode technology u201Cand use a specific

u201Cprinter bar codeu201D based on the device type selected, or alternatively use the u201Cnew bar

code technology.u201D We recommend that you use u201Cnew technologyu201D if possible as this has

many advantages:

u2022 Does not require the creation of u201Cprinter bar codesu201D for every single possible

device type being used

u2022 Does not require knowledge of the printeru2019s command language.

u2022 You can preview the bar code (SAP NetWeaver 04 onwards)

u2022 This can also be rendered on non-Zebra printers (although as a graphic)
