[Caution] • When data being held in the print buffer, this command is ignored.
• Regardless of the specified feed pitch, this command feeds the paper to
be required to print a bar code.
• If the character code d cannot be printed in the respective bar code
system, the bar code so far will be printed, processing the subsequent
data as normal data.
• When a bar code whose number of characters to be printed is fixed has
been selected, the number of characters k have to be always made equal
to the number of characters to be printed. (The bar code is not printed
when not matching.)
• When the horizontal direction exceeds one line length, the excess part is
not printed.
[Default] • The initial value is not specified.
[Description of Bar Codes] <For print examples, see Page 75.>
UPC-A This bar code, consisting of numerals only, has a fixed length of 12 columns; a 11
columns number entered from the host or application software plus a check
column(12th column) automatically calculated inside the printer. If the 12th-
column numeral is sent from the host, the entire bar code will be printed as it is.
