Barcode Printing

EAN/UPC Barcode

(X, Y = unregarded):

1

) These values are true, if “Compressed Print” is selected in the menu (see

print feature [F]).

2

) It is recommended to set the bar width equal to the space width (x=y).

3

) Printer-dependent reference value.

All values are only valid when a new color ribbon is used. The values change
depending on the degree of wear:

narrow bar: approx. -0.05 mm

narrow space: approx. +0.05 mm.

Code EAN 128 and EAN/UPC are based on module widths. Only the X
parameter is valid for this type. This parameter is used for the Y parameter
(narrow bar width). The Z parameter has no meaning. In combination with the
normal/condensed feature, 8 widths result (see Table 1 on page 233).

Error Code

Wrong characters in a control code or in a barcode test (e.g. an undefined
character in a certain barcode type) cause the barcode error sign to print.
