Chapter 3 Bar Codes
SC
Defines the starting column of the bar code. Enter a
value ranging from column 1 to one less than the
width of the form. Character column or dot column
is specified based on the Scale command (page
83), or use the CP.DP format (page 26).
(D)
The printable character (delimiter) identifying the
start and finish of the data field. Enter any printable
character other than a slash (/), the SFCC, or a
character used within the data. The same character
must be used at both ends of the data field, but it
will not print with the data.
data field
Enter the data for the bar code. This bar code is
restricted to 10 data characters. The first character
must be 0 through 9 or A through Z. The remaining
nine digits must be 0 through 9.
PDF Optional parameter to enable printing of the human
readable data field. Enter PDF to print the data
field. If the parameter is not used, the human
readable data will not print. This parameter is not
allowed if a null data field was specified.
LOC
Optional parameter to identify the location of the
printable data field. The default value is B, locating
the human readable data below the bar code. A
locates the printable data field above bar code. To
compensate for printing the 0.1-inch high data, the
height of the bar code body is reduced 0.1 inch.
FONT
Optional parameter to select the font for the human
readable data field. Enter O to select OCR-A font;
enter X to select OCR-B font; enter N to select 10
cpi; enter P to select 12 cpi; enter Q to select 13
cpi; enter R to select 15 cpi; enter T to select 17 cpi;
enter V to select 20 cpi.
STOP Ends the Bar Code command while the IGP/PGL
continues in the Create Form Mode. Enter STOP. If
STOP is not entered, an error message results.
Note Access for the alternate set of control function characters is
by using SO (Shift Out, hex 0E). The SO control code
identifies the next character as the control function
character, and must be inserted before
each
alternate
character required. The SO character is selectable from the
printer’s front panel (see your
User’s Guide
).
