Command Function

To print bar code images on a label. With this command, there are 13
standard bar code symbologies available to be printed and three two
dimensional symbols (see Two Dimensional Bar Code Symbols at the

important to know the differences. See Appendix B for specific
information on using each individual bar code symbol.
