How to print barcode with running number ZPL-II?

I have a simple program print barcodes. The label format is in a preloaded form. The value the barcode is passed by a parameter as follow.

^XA
^XFR:FORM.ZPL
^FN999^FDH654321+Y0001+OABC+^FS
^PQ2,0,1,N

And it print two barcodes

H654321+Y0001+OABC+
H654321+Y0001+OABC+

What I want is the middle part as a serial number, and it will print barcodes like this

H654321+Y0001+OABC+
H654321+Y0002+OABC+

I have tried the ^SN and ^SF

^FN999^FDH654321+Y0001+OABC+^SF%%%%%%%%%dddd%%%%%%,1%%%%%%^FS

But it was not success, two copies are the same. How can I do it in ZPL-II?

Solution

  • It was a no go. And end up generate the sequence in the application, not in the printer.
