Access retrieves an Enhanced Meta file handle from the ActiveX control at the time of the Print or Print Preview. When Access asks for the EMF handle, it sets the target resolution to 1440 dpi. When this EMF is replayed on the printer, it equals to transferring an image targeting high resolution to a lower resolution device. As previous analysis discovers, it does not decrease barcode quality when printing occurs on a high resolution printer. However, when printing takes place on a low resolution device, the rounding errors usually result in low-quality barcodes. For this reason, a high-resolution printer is required for printing; especially when the barcodes designed have a small NarrowBarWidth value.
