We have a HP LaserJet 3015n printer at my job that we use to print worksheets on standard 8 1/2 by 11" paper. The page contains a mix of text and a barcode, so a standalone barcode printer (i.e. Zebra) won't do the job. The barcoding software is a on a USB stick manufactured by HP called BarCodes & More. It has served us well for about five years, but as if today, we keep getting a warning message that the USB stick has pretty much crapped out and needs to be replaced.
The problem is that HP doesn't make this particular USB stick anymore. I have tacked one down on Amazon that cae to $300, including $30 for "expedited shipping" for delivery this coming Friday or next Tuesday. It's going to be a hellish few days without this thing. I figure that it's time to upgrade to a new printer that will be compatible with whatever USB barcode key HP is using these days, but better yet, I'd like to find a laser printer that has barcoding built in, rather relying on an easily damaged USB key.
Does anyone know of such a printer? I've Googled it a lot and can only come up with standalone barcode printers...
