Bar Codes

Hn[.m]

Optional parameter to adjust the overall height

(vertical expansion) of the bar code symbol (including

the upper and lower 0.1–inch guard bands and any

human readable data). Height adjustments are made in

0.1–inch increments; enter H and a value from 4 to 99

to select height adjustments from 0.4 to 9.9 inches. The

default value is 1.3 inches.

.m is an additional number of dots for the bar code

height. (Dots are in the current dot scale.)

BFn

Optional parameter for assigning a dynamic bar code

data field location on a form. With this parameter, the

actual data for the bar code data field is dynamically

provided during the Execute Form Mode; the data is

not specified during the Create Form Mode. To use this

field, perform the following steps:

a.

Enter BF.

b. Replace n with a number ranging from 1 to 255

to identify the bar code field. The SR and SC

parameters specify the exact location of the bar

code field identified by n.

c.

The length of the data field need not be

specified, since it is fixed at 12 digits, plus any

add–on data.

d. The information for the data field is entered

dynamically during the Execute Form Mode.

(Refer to “Execute Form: Dynamic Bar Code

Data” on page 4–55 in the “Commands”

chapter.) Do not use the data field parameter to

enter data when the BFn parameters are used.

However, refer to the data field description for

available characters.

DARK

Optional parameter to produce darker looking bar

codes. Enter DARK. Refer to “Dark Printing” on page

4–10 for more information.
