We don't use these printers. Instead, we use the attached hackery to
print up batches of barcodes from our laser printer. In addition to
PHP and apache, it requires the "barcode" and "ps2pdf" executables.
If you have Debian/Sarge, these are found in the "barcode" and
"gs-common" packages.
We happen to use Avery 5160 labels, so barcode.html is set to provide
these settings as our defaults, but you can change it to fit the
label sheets you would like to print.
The "Barcode Values" can be populated with ranges, and/or lists as
follows:
1-50 (barcodes 1 through 50 sequentially)
1,2,3 (barcodes 1, 2, and 3)
3,,4 (barcode 3, leave the next label blank, then barcode 4)
These can also be combined as in the following:
30-92,96,,105
This is interpreted to mean:
barcodes 30 through 92 sequentially
barcode 96
skip the next label
barcode 105
Of course these values are modified before printing by other settings
such as "Barcode Value Length" and "Barcode Suffix" (these have the same
meaning as within the Emilda configuration.
