Hello, we are supplying a product called "PrintServer". This product serves as a "virtual" printer which will redirect printing to another "real" printer after applying a previously defined form layout to the data. This layout can contain barcode definitions. Any printer supported by Windows NT can be used as "real" taget printer. More detailed information: http://www.tec-it.co.at/tie_psrv.htm Greetings G.
