How to print a barcode on an area of only 2*16mm?

"If I need to print a 12-digit Code128 barcode on a smooth PVC surface with an area of only 2*16mm , which option is most suitable?"

Inquired by a budget-conscious client

High Resolution:

    Many may immediately think of Hi-res. However, in Ec-jet's sampling for the client, it was found that water-based ink cartridges could produce qualified and even high-quality patterns but were easily wiped away (even after extended periods of static exposure). On the other hand, solvent ink cartridges proved entirely inadequate for this high-resolution task.

Laser:

    While precise engraving is easy for ECL laser, the lower contrast and the high price of the machine discouraged the client.

CIJ:

    Readers familiar with CIJ technology might find it surprising, given the typical dot-matrix characteristics associated with CIJ. However, with Ec-jet's continuous research and development in CIJ technology, the 40μ small aperture nozzle and excellent circuit control system make fine CIJ printing possible and quite impressive! And the CIJ2000 (40μ) also won the client's trust in the end.
