Configuring
the Code 128/
and UCC/EAN
128 Options
Use the bar codes in this section to configure the Code 128 and UCC/
EAN 128 options.
Minimum Label
Length
Follow these steps to set Code 128 and UCC/EAN 128 Minimum Label
Length.
1. Identify the minimum length setting you want to make. The
selectable range is 00 to 50
1
characters.
2. Scan the SET bar code on page 75.
3. Scan the SET MINIMUM LABEL LENGTH bar code.
4. Set the minimum label length by scanning the applicable
digits from the bar codes on page 76. Return to this page and
go to step five
5. Scan the END bar code
1. The scanner will decode up to 50 characters, but the actual length read will vary depending
upon interface type, the physical size of the bar codes, print quality and whether the bar
code data consists of Code 128 code set A, set B, or set C characters. (The C128 character
set C allows for more densely packed data, thus if the bar code includes all or mostly C128
set C characters, more characters can be decoded).
NOTE
If you are setting a label length less than ten,
you must scan a zero digit first and then the
length digit (e.g., 04, 06, 08).
