Designing Using LDSII Chapter 1
12 LDSII Programming Guide - 880015-0123
This script would cause a line to be inserted an inch from the left side and an inch from the
bottom. The line would be 1.11” in width or length (X direction) and would be 0.01” in height
(Y direction). The “^Fn)” field must reference a “^Tn)” field for proper operation. The line
draw does not have to reference its own specific Text Entry command (“^Tn)”) and may
reference an existing Text Entry field in the script file as demonstrated in the above
example. Refer to Chapter 4 for additional information regarding the line draw feature.
Bar Codes
The bar codes or symbologies are stored in the printer and can be selected by entering the
system character “@” followed by the text equivalent code of the desired symbology in the
CI parameter, refer to Table 2 for the available bar codes.
The bar codes that provide optional check digits can be accessed and printed by entering
“cs” immediately following the bar code text equivalent code. This is helpful to meet the
individual bar code specifications.
For example: If the user wanted to generate a human readable MSI1 that included the
check digits, “msi1cs_hr” would then be entered while “msi1_hr” would not include the check
digits in human readable form.
See Chapter 5 for more detailed information pertaining to bar codes and their individual
formatting requirements.
