— 5. Bar code and enlarged character function —

• Modulus 47

a. Data characters are weighed from the right to the left, as, for

example, 1, 2, ..., 20, 1, 2 ... 20, 1, 2 and so forth. The sum of
the data character values determined..

b. The character with a character value equal to the remainder of

dividing the value determined in step a by 47 is the first check
character (C).

c. Data characters are weighed from the right to the left,

beginning with C, as, for example, 1, 2, ..., 15, 1, 2 ... , 15, 1, 2
and so forth. The sum of the data character values is
determined.

d. The character with a character value equal to the remainder of

dividing the value found in step c by 47 is the second check
character (K).

• Modulus 103

a. The sum of the products of the data character values and

position values is determined. (The leftmost character has a
position value of 1.)

b. The start character value is added to the sum determined in

step a above.

c. The character with a character value equal to the remainder

of dividing the value determined in step c by 103 is the check
character.

After executing a BS command input immediately after bar

code data, printing starts from the position by one

character to the left of the currently set character pitch.

When a margin is specified, bar code data in the buffer is

cleared.

The element printing function prints bar codes by inputting

data element by element.

This function allows the user to print bar codes which are

not supported by the printer but are expressed by

combining elements. No HRI is printed, no check digit is

added, and a start or stop character is not added, since

data is input element by element.

The following show the codes expressing elements.

00H: Narrow

01H:

Wide bar

02H:

Narrow space

03H: Wide

04H: Inter-character
