Adding Font

We have a barcode DIMM installed in our 8150DN printer but the barcode is too big for our label.
Is it possible to add a new font (smaller barcode font) in HP UNIX Workstation or HPLJ and use this to print?

Re: Adding Font

I think you need to refer to your printer documentation or your supplier.
The barcode printing is likely to be highly device specific. and completely independent of your HP-UX fonts.

Is there a way where I can install the TTF font directy to the Printer? any HPLJ printer 4000 series, 5000 series, etc.

Re: Adding Font

Sorry. Hadn't realised this was an HP printer with PCL support.
Try here.
