Help with Barcodes!!!!

Question

Hello everyone!
I'm having problems to print a barcode from a sapscript, I choose a barcode from the transaction se73, I choosed "BARCLVS" and "C128A_00", and both did not work, I also create one with the option "New barcode technology" and the other with "old system barcode", and both did not work too.
I assigned it to the form and I create a character format <BC> with the barcode I create, but it did not work, 'cause when I print it, in the print preview appears the barcode, but in the label doesn't appear.
So please if anybody can tell me what's wrong with my process, also I'm using a Zebra Printer and the basis named it ACZE in windows but in SAP it is named LB_ZEB the same printer.
Please Help Me!!!!!
Thanks for your time.

First, to print a barcode using SAPscript you have to
implement a software solution or a hardware solution.
In my case, we have a DIMM card installed in all of our printers which need to print barcodes.  I've heard that there is a software solution as well.
You mentioned that you are using a zebra printer.  In this case, you don't need to do anything special.  Nor do you need to embed a barcode in your sapscript.  Are you using the ZPLII language in your sapscript?  This is how you define the layout of your label for zebra printers.  All you do, is have a MAIN window in your sapscript form and then have all of the ZPLII printer code inside the window.  The CODE defines the label.  The CODE defines the barcode.
Here is a sample of our ZPLII code.  The code that does
the barcode is in BOLD.
