Barcode human readable line ON or OFF 2
This parameter shows whether the machine prints the human readable line below the barcode. Human
readable characters are always printed with OCR-B font of 10 pitch and all the current character style
enhancements are masked. The default setting is determined by the barcode mode selected by ‘t’ or ‘T’.
Quiet zone 2
n = ‘onnn’ or ‘Onnn’ (nnn = 0 ~ 32767)
Quiet zone is the space on both sides of the barcodes. Its width can be shown using the units that are set by
the ‘u’ or ‘U’ parameter. (For the description of ‘u' or ‘U' parameter, see the next section.) The default setting
of the quiet-zone width is 1 inch.
Barcode, expanded character unit, line block drawing and box drawing 2
This parameter shows the measurement units of X-axis offset, Y-axis offset, and barcode height.
n = ‘r0’ or ‘R0 Human readable line OFF
n = ‘r1’ or ‘R1 Human readable line ON
Preset: Human readable line ON
(1) ‘T5’ or ‘t5’
(2) ‘T6’ or ‘t6’
(3) ‘T130’ or ‘t130’
(4) ‘T131’ or ‘t131’
Preset: Human readable line OFF
All others
n = ‘u0’ or ‘U0’ mm (preset)
n = ‘u1’ or ‘U1’ 1/10
n = ‘u2’ or ‘U2’ 1/100
n = ‘u3’ or ‘U3’ 1/12
n = ‘u4’ or ‘U4’ 1/120
n = ‘u5’ or ‘U5’ 1/10 mm
n = ‘u6’ or ‘U6’ 1/300
n = ‘u7’ or ‘U7’ 1/720
