From my application, I am trying to print UPC barcodes in a procedure that loops through the inventory and reads the SKU number. I am using the Windows driver for the printer but get nothing printing.

I have defined my print area in the REPORT function as 1 in high and 1.5 inches wide. I have selected fanfold paper.

Is there anyone who can assist me in printing barcodes?

Thanks

Dear Alan
I have been printing like that for years without any problem so far.

If the label is one then your report should be a little smaller than the exact label height.
Easy to see from the red dotted line appearing in the design of the report.
Then you must set up the printer page properties to be as in your report or in case various sizes of labels are printed then
you must use iconfigure from your application to change the paper size from your app.
Then you should have a barcode controll on the report which is linked to the item containing the data to print and make sure that the report control of the barcode can display the barcode printed .
For example if the control is too small no barcode will be printed
make your test with 128 barcode type that fits more characters.
and of course above all the report must contain a data file or query where all the records you need to print come from.
The data should be available for the report before launching it.
If you get something printed in print preview then the printer will print.

Regards
Nikos

I don't know which bar code library did you use. I just give you my solution, and below are upc-a and upc-e:
