14 Precautions for Use

Precautions for Use

Important

This barcode can only be used with PCL5e.

In order to correctly print and use the barcode font, the application software must

support the barcode font.

It may not be possible to read the printed barcode with all scanners due to variations

in toner density and paper quality, therefore we recommend that you verify the reading

ability of the scanner before use.

8-bit Code and Control Code

In order assign the PCL5 command and barcode data character strings, hexadecimal

digits (00 to 1F) control code and 8-bit code (AA, etc.) must be assigned. The use of "~" (tilde)

instead of <ESC> and expressing the control code with ASCII character strings by the

<ESC>**#J (Alternate Escape Code) command is not supported.

Start/Stop/Check Digit

Start, Stop and guard bar must be assigned as a character string while being aware of the

Barcode type. The user must knowingly insert the spaces around the Barcode.

Also, the check digit should be calculated manually from the data that is going to be

expressed based on the barcode code and the check digit must be inserted into the correct

position of the data character string. (Generally before the Stop character.)

Caption

Caption input is not supported. The user must insert captions as a PCL5 command.
