Having trouble printing barcodes in a report

I have a report that has a barcode (3 of 9) on one of the fields.
This report previews fine, but when it prints the barcode isn't there, just the underlying text.
I have the font installed on my computer, and on the computer hosting RS. I had thought that it was only needed on the computers running the reports.
Any ideas of what needs to be done to print the barcode in the report?
The report is being accessed through the web browser interface to the Reporting Server computer.
Thanks,
Wayne

If I export to a pdf, it also does not have the barcodes in the report.

The report does print out correctly from VS.

Well, it's now working. Didn't change a thing. Took a break, and when I came back to this, it's working.
