Epson EPL-5800L Printer User Manual


 
Appendix B Working with Fonts
136
To more easily distinguish barcodes from other text in your
document, set your application to show text symbols, such as
paragraph marks, tabs, etc.
Because special characters such as Start bar and Stop bar are
added when an EPSON BarCode Font is selected, the
resulting barcode may have more characters than were
originally input.
For best results, use only the font sizes recommended in
“BarCode Font specifications” on page 136 for the EPSON
BarCode Font you are using. Barcodes in other sizes may not
be readable with all barcode readers.
Note:
Depending on the print density, or on the quality or color of the paper,
barcodes may not be readable with all barcode readers. Print a sample
and make sure the barcode can be read before printing large quantities.
