Thanks to John C. Julian for his help. Here is his response:

I started using this, and while I was in the course of finding which
barcodes were readable by the L404, I stumbled upon this link:
http://www.sunmanagers.org/archives/1998/0359.html in the old archives. I
should have used a less specific search and I would have found it in the
archives. Jeff Jewett had a perl script which created postscript labels.
This ended up doing the trick in the end.

Thanks!
