What version of RM/COBOL are you using, and, on what platform(Windows, Linux, AIX, etc...)?

If you are on a Windows platform, then, RM/COBOL does support Windows printing routines(P$) that provide image printing functionality. And, the RM/COBOL Development ships with several samples that demonstrate the use of these routines.

**As a note; you can find the P$ subroutine documentation in "Appendix E: Windows Printing" of the RM/COBOL User's Guide.

However, if you are on a UNIX platform, then, I would recommend reviewing the following Knowledge Base article in regards to using XML Extensions and Apache FOP to produce PDF documents:

PDF document creation using XML Extensions and Apache FOP

**And, you can print the generated PDF document after it has been generated/formatted.

Please let me know if you have any questions, or, if you are unable to located the RM/COBOL printing samples.

Hi Steve, 

We are using Unix platform with normal COBOL programming coding and the we are using 10.3 thin client to run the program. 

We wish to print out the barcode using HP PCL printer instead of PDF. 

May i know that anyway we can printout the barcode which is in a image format. 

Thank You.

Since you appear to be using ACUCOBOL-GT extend, have you tried posting this question in the ACUCOBOL section of the Community Forum(https://community.microfocus.com/cobol/acucobol/f/forumid-20)?

Unfortunately, the RM/COBOL user base might not have the expertise necessary to assist you with ACUCOBOL software development, however, the ACUCOBOL users should be better able to provide guidance with that COBOL solution.

Please let me know, though, if you are using RM/COBOL to develop your application.
