data length specified via integer
n = nH:nL 1D 6B m nL nH d1. . .dn
The value of m selects the bar code system as described in the table. The variable d indicates the character code to be
encoded into the specified bar code system. See the table. If character code d cannot be encoded, the printer prints the bar
code data processed so far, and the following data is treated as normal data.
Exceptions
Code 93 and PDF 417 are only available in A798 native mode.

All the individual barcode strings start with 1D 6B m, where m is the type of barcode. Use the same command to do
multiple barcodes on one line.
1D 6B FF 01 begin multiple barcodes one line
1D 6B FF 00 end multiple barcodes one line, print the barcodes
· Multiple barcodes can be aligned right, left, center same as single line barcodes
· All barcodes on one line printed at same alignment, height, width, and HRI as the first one
