GS h
Function: Set bar code height
Code ASCII: GS h n
Code HEX:
0x1D 0x68 n
Range: 1 ≤ n ≤ 255
Default:
n = 216
Description:
Sets the height of a bar code.
• n specifies number of dots in the vertical direction of a bar code
• Following minimum height exists

Notes:
• This command setting is effective until performing of ESC @, reset or
power-off.
• A set unit is one dot.
• One dot corresponds to 0.125 mm {1/203 inch}.
• GS h works not for composite codes and the separator for composite
codes (see GS k)
• Height of composite codes are adjusted with 2 times of the selected
barcode width (see GS w)
• Separators between composite and rest barcode are 1 times of the
selected barcode width (see GS w)
• If the Barcode has got a minimum height, the minimum height will be
used, if the n smaller than minimum.
• If the Barcode a stacked variant, n is valid for the complete barcode, with
all rows.
