Data processing in the bar code data sequence
In a bar code data sequence following ESC SI, any codes
other than the ESC code are regarded as bar code data.
Continuous two-byte ESC codes (ESC + ESC) are
regarded as a one-byte ESC bar code.
In a barcode data sequence following ESC SI, SO ESC+
SI and ESC + ESC are valid and the other ESC sequence
are ingnored. The ESC code and the following data, two
bytes in all, are discarded.
When a start or stop character code (e.g., * code of Code
39) is input in a bar code data sequence, the bar code
data sequence stops if bar code data has already been
input in that sequence. The data that was input is valid
(and converted into a bar code). If not, the bar code data
sequence does not stop and the code is discarded.
When 68 bytes of data is input, the bar code data sequence
ends automatically.
When Code 93 or Code 128 is selected, the bar code data
sequence ends when the amount of input data, including the
automatically inserted control character, reaches 68
