NOTE: If you are using 1.2" wide supplies and printing
UPCA or EAN13 bar codes using option 7 in box
B10, the printer may omit the check digit
character because the supply may be too narrow.
To print the check digit character on the label:
Use option 5 in box B10 of the bar code field.
Define a one-character field of reduced font and add
Option 4 to copy the check digit from the corresponding
bar code field.
Position the check digit field so it fits on the label.
