<Example> To print “No.” in code set B, followed by “123456” in code set C, send the
following data string:
GS k <73> <10> <7B>H <42>H, “ No.” <7B>H <43>H <12> <34>
<56>
• If the printer finds a string of bar code data that does not begin with a code set select
character, it immediately aborts the command processing and handles the subsequent
data as normal data.
• If the printer received a character that is not available in the currently selected code
set, it immediately aborts the command processing and handles the subsequent data
as normal data.
• An HRI character corresponding to either a Shift character or a code select character is
not printed. An HRI character for either a function character or a control character is
treated as a space character.
