from your computer. This requires a software application that is capable
of generating and sending bar code commands to the printer. If you want
to use a particular software application to print bar codes, contact the
software manufacturer for specific details.
)Note: If you are a programmer who would like to generate and send
bar code commands from your own software applications, refer to the
AMT Datasouth Bar Code Option Operating Guide (part no. 337027)
for programming information. Also, refer to the Code Sets appendix of
this guide for a listing of the bar code commands.
