 ==== Printing EAN-13 EPL codes on a Zebra Printer ====
-When printing EAN-13 labels on a Zebra printer, you must be sure to only send the first 12 numbers, and not the 13th digit.  The reason is that the Zebra printer is trying to auto-generate the 13th digit itself.  Most EAN-13 codes start with a zero "0".  What happens is that the Zebra drops the first zero and tacks on a 13th digit based on a math formula.  Unfortunately it becomes a completely different barcode, which cannot be used to find your product.
