Trouble shooting
The printer doesn’t print barcode:
1. The version of the Barcode module must fit into your model of the Tally Laserprinter.
2. Is the module correct installed? Generate a SELF TEST print out and verify if the
module is recognised in the SIMM/DIMM slot.
3. Refer to www.tally.de -> driver -> printer model} and download the „Barcode Testpage“.
Print it with „copy/b bc-test.pcl llpt1“, two pages with barcode samples should be printed.
If this all do work, and your application still doesn’t print the barcode, verify again the ESC-
Sequence. It should start with the <ESC> sign and end with an uppercase ‘T’. The
barcode data should directly follow after this termination character. Another good way to
start the search is to replace the <ESC> by any printable characters. The printer must print
now the sequence as readable text. If not, then the sequence is definitively not received by
the printer.
Windows doesn’t print the barcode:
Don’t use any enhanced printer driver. Enhanced will use PCL XL. Only PCL 5 is
supported by the Barcode module.
If you are using a Microsoft driver, switch to any build in font, but not COURIER!
Word 97 does have some problems with sending down the PRINT FIELD! Be sure that
you have installed all Wordpatches and that you are NOT using an Microsoft driver. The
newest PCL drivers are located on the WEB. We recommend to use a standard LaserJet
4 PCL driver
Windows prints part of the barcode:
Try to use a fixed pitch Letter Gothic font in 6pt or smaller.
How to stop barcode printing:
Just send any other font selection sequence after the barcode message.
The blank problem:
Sometimes applications fill fields with blanks before or after the data. If you use an
alphanumerical code like 3of9 or Code 128, this can cause a problem. We are aware of
this, and are trying to solve this in the next versions.
If the field is left hand printed and fixed length, then just add <27>&p fieldlength X direct
after the ‘T’ of the selection sequence. Leading blanks are always ignored, unless you
don’t add this sequence.
