Maybe you could write something to output a higher quality error free
dot code image, that might actually print and work. Scanning
introduces errors that most likely affects the ability to print the
dot codes, so that they work. The closest I have come was a read
error. Low quality scanning + printing produces completely
undetectable codes, that is they don't get detected and therefore you
don't even get a read error, but eventually, a time delay error. I
managed to print a few detectable codes, but not enough to be able to
use the printed strip.
