B9. height Bar code height, in 1/100 inches, 1/10 mm, or dots. Minimum values:
English 19
Metric 48
203 Dots 38
300 Dots 57
POSTNET, PDF417, and MaxiCode bar codes have a fixed height.
Always use 0 for these bar codes.
For Data Matrix and QR Code, the printer determines the size of the
symbol, but the user’s scanner determines the functional size (minimum
height) of the symbol. Small Data Matrix and QR Codes may not be
scannable. The Data Matrix and QR Code’s height depends on the number
entered for this parameter. For example, if you select 80, the symbol could
be smaller than 0.80," but it will not be greater than the amount specified in
this parameter. The symbol arranges the data according to rows and
columns within the specified height.
For the GS1 DataBar bar code, the height is for the linear bar code only
used with UCC/EAN family types listed in B13.
For the Aztec bar code, use 0.
