Glossary
specific object on a label, you use the reference name of the object in the barcode
properties.

SmartPaste
A quick way to print labels using data from other programs.
U
UCC/EAN 128
UCC/EAN 128 is used instead of EAN 8/EAN 13 when additional information
needs to be encoded.
UPC
Universal Product Code (UPC) is commonly used to identify retail products sold in
stores in the United States.
UPC-A
Universal Product Code (UPC) version A is commonly used to identify retail
products sold in stores in the United States. This code requires 12 digits: the first
digit represents the product type, the next five digits encode the manufacturer’s
UPC code, the next five digits represent the product code, followed by the
checksum digit. After you enter the 11 digits to be encoded, the program
automatically calculates the checksum for the 12th digit. This code requires
numeric information only.
UPC-E
Universal Product Code (UPC) version E is small in size and is commonly used for
small packages. The information encoded in the UPC-E barcode is identical to
information encoded in UPC-A barcodes, except that zeros are omitted from the
encoded number in order to reduce the number of digits from 12 to 6. This code
requires numeric information only. UPC-E can only be used for product UPC codes
(the product type character must be 0 or 1).
V
variable
When the label is printed the variable data on the label changes for each label
based on the source data. Source data can come from entries in the Address Book,
Smart Paste, Merge Print from Database, or DYMO Label Add-Ins.
