Intermec printers support three different types of Code 39:
• 43 character Code 39
• Full ASCII Code 39
• 8646 compatible Code 39 (except the EasyCoder F4, PF2i, PF4i and
PM4i)
The 8646 compatible version only differs from the full ASCII version by
four characters. The “$”, “%”, “/”, and “+” are encoded as single characters
instead of as “/D”, “/E”, “/O”, and “/K.” The 8646 compatible version
allows the printer to be backward compatible with 86XX printers.
When you enter <ESC><SPACE> as data, the printer prints the start and
stop characters.
