Bar Code Printing via iSeries Access for Windows V 5.5

["Steve Dodkins" <Steve.Dodkins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Hi

Is it possible to set up a Client Access printer (for a printer attached
to the PC via USB) to print bar codes ?
I can get general reports to print but reports with bar codes embedded
get the following error message.

Cause . . . . . :   Writer HP5510SB could not re-direct file D40761PR
number   
  19 job 668289/xxxxxxxx/WH_PCKLST2 created on system xxxxxxxx on
15/08/07     
  10:30:30 to device HP5510SB.  Advanced function printing data stream
(AFPDS) 
  data cannot be converted to the format required to produce the file on
that  
  device.

Recovery  . . . :   File D40761PR can only be produced on a printer
supported  
  by advanced function printing (AFP). If device HP5510SB can be started
with  
  the AFP specified as *YES, stop the writer, change the device
description    
  for the printer (CHGDEVPRT command) by specifying the AFP parameter as
*YES, 
  and start the writer again.
