If you select Unused Barcodes, press Starting At, and choose either your
highest barcode or the last barcode before a gap in your barcode sequence.
Then enter the number of barcodes (up to 990) that you want to print.
If you select Used Barcodes, press Starting At and Ending At to select the
range of barcode numbers that you want. The application prints only the
barcode numbers in use within that range; it skips any unused barcode
numbers. For instructions on selecting the starting and ending numbers, see
page 489.
If you select Used barcodes by Acquisition Date, enter the starting and
ending date range.
If you select Used barcodes by Barcode List or Used barcodes by Standard
Number List, click Edit List to add or remove numbers. For instructions on
building lists, see page 492.

Label Template: The label stock used for barcodes has 30 labels per sheet, 3
across and 10 down. Each label is 2 5/8" by 1". It is available from Follett
Software Company, product # 75032 (1-800-323-3397, 
or from University Products, Inc., product # 9-62450-16 (1-800-628-1912,

Starting Label: To start printing on other than the first label on the sheet, set
Starting Label to the correct position. Reports counts labels from left to
right/top to bottom. For example, to start printing on the first label of the
third row, set Starting Label to 7.

Offsets: Use the offset options to fine-tune the printing alignment. The
horizontal and vertical offsets let you adjust the left and top margins,
respectively. Each increment is equal to 1/10th of a millimeter. The offsets
required vary from printer to printer. These offsets are in addition to the
unprintable area defined in your printer's properties.
Important: 
 Before you print from a Mac OS workstation, you must also select File
| Page Setup and choose the 8.5" x 11" paper with the smallest
margins (approximately .17" left/right and .11" top/bottom).
Depending on your printer, you may also have to select the option for
a larger print area. Please note that the page setup reverts to its
default settings when you close Reports.
After selecting your options, click Print.
The first time you print barcodes at a workstation, print a few samples on plain
paper, and do the following:

Make sure that the barcode is centered on the label. (Scanners require some
white space at either end of the vertical barcode lines.) If not, adjust the
offsets and try again. When you print, Reports saves the offset settings you
used on the workstation so that you do not have to set them again.

Make sure that your scanner and/or PHD can read the barcodes. The quality
of the printout varies from printer to printer; some older printers cannot
produce scanner-readable barcodes. We performed all testing using laser
