(n:w)
Specifications for the narrow (n)
and wide (w) bars. Place these
modifiers within parentheses.
Allowable range is 1 to 9 for both
n and w. For UPC, EAN, ADD2,
ADD5, and CODE128 (A, B, and C),
n specifies an integral multiplier
for the bar code width. For all
other codes, this option specifies
the width in dots of the narrow
and wide bars. The value of w
must always be greater than n.
W
Increases the width ratio of wide
to narrow bars (use only with
CODE39).
X
Doubles the width of all bars and
spaces in the bar code (use only
with CODE39).
x y
Starting position of printed bar code. This
is the lower left corner of the bar code
block. Extender bars and bar code subtext
are below this position.
h
Height of bar code in dots. Allowable
range is 1 to 256. This does not include the
height of the bar code subtext or extender
bars (if any).
Characters
ASCII characters to be bar coded.
NOTE: Not all printers support bar codes.
Refer to Table 2. Printer Bar Code Support
for more information.
