    This should be quite easy. Normally you just drag a resize handle on one of the corners or edges in the editor software. Which software are you using?

    I'm a little confused about the post however, since it is on a coding site. Do you want to write your own and are coding the resize right now. If so, scaling should be appropriate and will work as long as the other printing condition are working (remember, the scanning equipment must be able to register reflectance differences in the pattern of the bars, so too small of a resizing may cause printer bleeding and not give readable results).

    Prior to my current career as a coder I worked my way through college as Lead QA (and various other positions) in a factory that made labels for barcoding printers, so I hope that my expereince can help you out here!
