Sending ESC/POS commands via bash script or command line.

Hi everyone,
I have an Epson TM-T88IIIP printer that I am trying to print bar codes on. I have successfully used all the formatting commands and activated the drawer kick and cut function, but I *cannot* figure out how to print a bar code!
Has anyone out there done this?!? I don't know if I am doing something wrong or it just isn't possible. An example would be the greatest of help.

Thanks,
RMFlagg

And how have you configured all what you say, because i am trying to do in Ubuntu and the printer does not work.

Thank you very much.

I just have the printer configured with the Generic Raw Queue driver and then I send commands to the printer with the lpr command.
Usually, I just make a text file containing all the text and commands and then send it with 'lpr -P fooprinter foobar.txt'

Good Luck,
RMF

P.S. I still can't get the printer to print out bar codes, though.
