A file in which a barcode area is specified can be
registered to the printer driver on the printer's
[Properties]-[Environment] tab screen. A registered
file is displayed on the [Barcode area definition]
pull-down menu. ("Barcode area file entry"

For details, see "Using the Barcode Area Definition
Application" in the "Basic Guide".

Select the check box, and select an area definition file
to print from the pull-down menu.
[Preview]

file.
[Barcode area proof]

definition is out of alignment, and whether letters or
illustrations lie over the 1 mm (0.04") around the
barcode.
