This article explains how to create a custom barcode configuration for the SE4720

This article describes how to create a programming barcode for Elo 2D Barcode Scanners, P/Ns: E384627 and E454122 which are integrated with the Zebra SE4720 Scan Engine with the PL5000 decoder. The scanner does NOT have to be connected to create the barcode. This will allow you to configure all your barcode scanner settings and save as a barcode printout to use on any barcode scanner of the same model.
