5.6.7 FO (Field Orientation)
This parameter defines the rotation of the format field on the label. The point of rotation is
determined from the Field Justification parameter.
0 0 degrees (normal rotation)
1 180 degrees (upside-down rotation)
2 90 degrees (left rotation)
3 270 degrees (right rotation)
5.6.8 FJ (Field Justification)
This parameter defines the justification of the format field on the label.
0 Left Justified above the base-line
1 Right Justified above the base-line
2 Left Justified below the base-line
3 Right Justified below the base-line
4 Centered above the base-line
5 Centered below the base-line
Table 12 shows how to obtain the proper character placement or starting positions relative
to the format field’s orientations and justifications.
ROTATION FIELD ORIENTATION and JUSTIFICATION
0 & 180 Degrees
0 – Left justified above the base-line
1 – Right justified above the base-line
2 – Left justified below the base-line
3 – Right justified below the base-line
4 – Centered above the base-line
5 – Centered below the base-line
90 & 270 Degrees
0 – Left justified above the base-line
1 – Right justified above the base-line
2 – Left justified below the base-line
3 – Right justified below the base-line
4 – Centered on the Y axis, right of X coordinate
5 – Centered on the Y axis, left of the X coordinate

5.6.9 CMX (Character Multiplier X Direction)
The CMX parameter multiplies each character in the X direction. The valid range is 1 to
65536. For bar codes with a FO of 0 & 180 degree rotation, the CMX would be the
multiplier while the CMY would be the actual height in thermal dots. For bar codes with a
