[Notes] • If d is outside of the speci ed range, the printer prints the following message: “BAR CODE
GENERATOR IS NOT OK!” and processes the data which follows as normal data.
• If the horizontal size exceeds the printing area, the printer only feeds the paper.
• This command feeds as much paper as is required to print the bar code, regardless of
the line spacing speci ed by $1B $32 or $1B $33.
After printing the bar code, this command sets the print position to the beginning of the
line.
• This command is not affected by print modes (emphasized, double-strike, underline or
character size), except for upside-down and justi cation mode.
[Notes per n] • This command ends with a NUL code.
• When the bar code system used is UPC-A or UPC-E, the printer prints the bar code data
after receiving 11 (without check digit) or 12 (with check digit) bytes bar code data.
• When the bar code system used is EAN13, the printer prints the bar code data after
receiving 12 (without check digit) or 13 (with check digit) bytes bar code data.
• When the bar code system used is EAN8, the printer prints the bar code data after
receiving 7 (without check digit) or 8 (with check digit) bytes bar code data.
• The number of data for ITF bar code must be even numbers. When an odd number of
data is input, the printer ignores the last received data.
[Notes per o] • If n is outside of the speci ed range, the printer stops command processing and proc-
esses the following data as normal data.
When CODE93 is used:
• The printer prints an HRI character ( o ) as a start character at the beginning of the HRI
character string.
• The printer prints an HRI character ( o ) as a stop character at the end of the HRI char-
acter string.
