If so HP made a printer that printed it's own barcode of programs created on the 41. If you wish I will see if I have a copy of the old catalog of 41/71 series products and give you the stock number. Most likeky you will have to find someone willing to part with a used one. If your are trying to print bar code of programs downloaded from your 41 to your PC and then print them out on your Epson compatible printer, I can give no help. Harold Climer Physics Department U.
