Appendix C  PCL Command Codes

PCL parameterized escape sequences

To utilize the 30K Address Printers internal bar-coding features, records are searched for a valid ZIP, ZIP + 4,

Delivery Point Bar Code (DPBC) or DPBC with a check sum. For ZIP + 4 or a 11 digit DPBC, a checksum is

computed for printing a USPS Postnet bar-code with framing bars. The position of the Postnet bar-code is

determined by the printers menu setup or the bar-code location commands in effect. Bar-codes will not be

printed outside of the printers’ Page Size setup.
