Check

Digit*1

*1 The check digit is automatically calculated in accordance with input data. For

EAN-13, EAN-8, and UPC-A, and when using a check digit with ITF, the
check digit is appended at the end of the printed digits. When using a check
digit with CODE39 or CODABAR, the check digit is appended one digit before
the final digit.

*2 UPC-E includes a check digit, but it is not printed as a numeral below the bar

code.

*3 The number of digits printed below a bar code equals the input characters

plus automatically appended characters.

*4 An error message is displayed whenever there are insufficient digits. The

printer will not allow input of too many digits.

*5 An error message appears and printing is impossible if an odd number of

digits are input when an ITF check digit is not being used. Append a zero to
the beginning of the digits and re-input.

*6 An error message appears and printing is impossible if an even number of

digits are input when an ITF check digit is being used. Append a zero to the
beginning of the digits and re-input.

*7 Both the start code and end stop code of CODE39 must be asterisks.
*8 An error message appears and printing is impossible if any characters other

than those specified here are used.

*9 With CODABAR, A, B, C, or D can be used as the start code and stop code.

An error message appears and printing is impossible if any other character is
used.
