BARCODE PREVIEWING BUT NOT PRINTING

[Former Member]

Hi GURUS / EXPERTS;

I have created a SAP SCRIPT FORM and Driver program for BARCODE Printing. Now my problem is that the

BARCODE is appearing on screen (Preview), but when print system print numbers instead of BARCODE.

Steps carried out: IN SE73: Create a SYSTEM BARCODE WITH NEW TECHNOLOGY, check the preview, it is OK.

IN SE73: SAP SCRIPT FONT MAINTENANCE: Defined the prefix & Suffix (SBP26 & SBS02) for that BARCODE & DEVICE.

IN SE71: created a character (BC) reich check the check box (Selection) and select the barcode.

Use that character in script as <BC> &T_BAR-CHARG&</>

in SE38: use the driver program to call the script form: IT DISPLAY THE BARCODE, BUT WHEN GIVE THE PRINT- PRINTING THE NUMBER. 123456 - Where 123456 is the value of T_BAR-CHARG.

Please help. or suggest where I am wrong.

Thanks in advance.

I had the same issue. When I printed the output, it printed as text instead of barcode. My developer figured out the fix. He tried a different font for the barcode in SAPscript form and it fixed the issue. Printout now shows barcode. Good luck!

If Printer is new then also you may get same issue, improper barcode chip may also be one of the issue.

hardware i.e printer support the barcode.

Hi Devendra,

Bar codes cannot be printed in all printers.

It can be printed only in printers where Barcode settings is configured.

Pls check with your Basis team for correct printer.

Hi friends thanks a lot for your reply.

So, its confirm that we require BARCODE.DLL to print the BARCODE with SAPSCRIPT.

With thanks.

Hi,

It is correvt that the new barcode technology is only supported via smartforms, see SAP Note #645158.

With sapscript, your printer must have barocde fonts installed.(see SAP note 45643)

Another solution is to print via a Windows system with a windows device type like SAPWIN or SWINCF and a barcode.dll.(see SAP note #14561)

As fare as I know new technologie barcodes are only supported with smartforms. I am not 100 % sure but I think that only works with smartforms. If you only see numbers on printout the printer is not able read barcode. Do you have a barcode printer or a normal one?
