SATO CX Series Printer
Special Notes
1. UPC and EAN bar codes are not affected by the different
types of narrow to wide ratios. Instead, the <ESC>D
command adds descender bars to these codes where
needed to meet UPC specifications. The <ESC>BD com-
mand puts descender bars and human readable text
below the symbol.
2. The Code 128, UCC 128, MSI, and Code 93 bar codes
are not affected by the narrow to wide ratios.
3. The Codabar and Code 39 bar codes are affected by the
Character Pitch command. This command must be pla-
ced before the Bar Code command.
4. Because of their unique characteristics, two-dimensional
symbols are covered separately(See page 88).
5. For UCC128, the FNC1 code is automatically inserted
and the Mod 10 and Mod 103 check digits are automati-
cally calculated.
6. For the MSI bar code, the check digit is not automatically
calculated.
7. To select UPC-A, 11 digits of data is sent. The printer
adds a “0” and automatically generates the check digit.
If 12 digits of data are sent, the printer assumes an EAN-
13 symbol and automatically generates the check digit.
The last digit of the bar code data is a modulo 10 check
digit. If 13 digits of data are sent to the printer, the check
digit is not created and must be supplied by the pro-
grammer. It must be the last character of the 13 digit
string.
