characters.

2.

Scan the SET bar code on

page 77

.

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 78

. Return to this page and

go to step five

5.

Scan the END bar code

1. The scanner will decode up to 80 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 con-
sists 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).
