There are three ways to control the bar code printer by programming: 1, and directly use the driver of the bar code printer as a common printer. Barcodes can be printed in barcode fonts or graphics. 2. Use the barcode printer language (script) to send it directly to the port of the printer, such as parallel port, network port or usb port. 3. Call the third-party software to control the printer and edit the label template. You just need to call it and transfer the data.

At present, bar code printer brands are mainly imported, such as Zebra in the United States, Honeywell (which acquired intermec), Datamax, Toshiba in Japan, TSC in Taiwan Province Province, etc.

There are mainly three in China, mainly Weihai Beiyang, Shenzhen Bos and Shanghai Bang Qi.

These printers basically support the above three calling methods.
