Returns the image of the component (this is a read-only property, not available at design-time). You may use this property to output a bar code to printer.

Syntax

BarCodeWiz1.Picture

Visual Basic Examples

Example 1. Send a bar code image to your printer. It will print the bar code in the top left position on the page (0,0).

Printer.PaintPicture BarCodeWiz1.Picture, 0, 0

Printer.EndDoc

Example 2. Set the Picture property of a PictureBox (named Picture1) to that of BarCodeWiz1.

Picture1.Picture = BarCodeWiz1.Picture

Visual C++ Examples

Example 1. Retrieve the Picture property.

CWiz m_Wiz;      

CPicture pic = m_Wiz.GetPicture();

Example 2. Send a bar code image to your printer.

CPrintDialog printdlog(FALSE);      

printdlog.GetDefaults();

CDC dc;

dc.Attach(printdlog.GetPrinterDC());

DOCINFO docinfo;

memset(&docinfo,0,sizeof(docinfo));

docinfo.cbSize = sizeof(DOCINFO);

docinfo.lpszDocName = "barcodewiz";       // document name for the spooler

if (dc.StartDoc(&docinfo) > 0)

{

      dc.StartPage();

      // Map Mode must be set after each StartPage().

      // Working with HiMetric units (1/100 of a mm)

      dc.SetMapMode(MM_HIMETRIC);

      CPicture pic = m_WizMain.GetPicture();

      long imageHeight = pic.GetHeight();

      long imageWidth = pic.GetWidth();

      // Remember that the vertical coordinates are reversed in MM_HIMETRIC

      CRect rct(        200,

                      -200,

                      200 + imageWidth,

                      - 200 - imageHeight );

      dc.PlayMetaFile((HENHMETAFILE)pic.GetHandle(), rct);

      dc.EndPage();

      dc.EndDoc(); // Start printing

}

dc.DeleteDC();
