302 Information about Fonts
EPSON Code128
❏ Code128 fonts support code sets A, B, and C. When the code
set of a line of characters is changed in the middle of the line,
a conversion code is automatically inserted.
❏ The height of the bar code is automatically adjusted to 15% or
more of its total length, in conformance to the Code128
standard. For this reason, it is important to keep at least one
space between the bar code and the surrounding text to
prevent overlapping.
❏ Some applications automatically delete the spaces at the end
of lines or change multiple spaces into tabs. Bar codes
containing spaces may not be correctly printed from
applications that automatically delete spaces from the ends of
lines or change multiple spaces into tabs.
❏ When printing two or more bar codes on one line, separate
the bar codes with a tab, or select a font other than a BarCode
Font and input the space. If a space is input while Code128 is
selected, the bar code will not be correct.
The following codes are inserted automatically and need not be
input by hand:
❏ Left/Right quiet zone
❏ Start/Stop character
❏ Check digit
Character type All ASCII characters (95 in total)
Number of characters No limit
