The printer driver you want likely would not solver your problem. Realize that AIX print drivers are not APIs for generating data. The application must put the bar code into the document.
On the other hand, if the barcode is in the document, and you print this as an ASCII text file, the AIX ASCII filter (virtual printer attribute_d=a) may actually filter out the character or convert to a printable character therefore destroying the barcode. If that is the case, then printing in passthrough mode would help.
What type of print file is this?
What printer language is the file in? PCL, PostScript, other
How was the file created?
How was the barcode added?
Do you have barcode fonts on the printer?
Do you have any barcode fonts that you expect to be downloaded?
