Bar Code Specifications

*1 The check digit is automatically calculated in accordance

with input data. For EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, and ITF,
the check digit is appended at the end of the printed
digits. For CODE39 and CODABAR, the check digit is
appended one digit before the final digit (when a check
digit is used).

*2 UPC-E includes a check digit, but it is not printed as a

numeral below the bar code.

*3 The number of digits printed below a bar code equals

the input characters plus automatically appended char-
acters.

*4 An error message is displayed whenever there are in-

sufficient digits. The unit will not allow input of too many
digits.

*5 An error message appears and printing is impossible if

an odd number of digits are input when an ITF check
digit is not being used. Append a zero to the beginning
of the digits and re-input.

*6 An error message appears and printing is impossible if

an even number of digits are input when an ITF check
digit is being used. Append a zero to the beginning of
the digits and re-input

*7 Both the start code and end stop code of CODE39 must

be asterisks.

*8 An error message appears and printing is impossible if

any characters other than those specified here are used.

*9 With CODABAR, A, B, C, or D can be used as the start

code and stop code. An error message appears and print-
ing is impossible if any other character is used.
