Notes:
1. The meaning of byte 11 (modifier byte) is dependent upon the bar code type. For the meaning of this
byte, see “Modifier Byte” on page 188
2. Any bar code can print with a unit/module width of 0.36 mm (0.014 in.). The only bar codes that can
print with a unit/module width of 0.53 and 0.71 mm (0.021 and 0.028 in.) are: Code 128, Codabar,
Code 3 of 9, MSI, 2 of 5 Industrial, 2 of 5 Matrix, and 2 of 5 Interleaved. If an unsupported unit/module
width is specified, the closest smaller supported unit/module width is used. For 0.43 mm (0.017 in.),
bar code block must equal 0 in BCAP bytes 8 - 9.
3. For all bar code types except UPC and EAN, the specified height equals the height of the bar/space
patterns. For UPC and EAN bar codes, the specified height includes the bar/space patterns and the
HRI. If a UPC or EAN bar code specifies a height less than or equal to 190 units at 1440 units per in.,
the height of the bar/space patterns equals the specified height and the total height is the specified
height plus the HRI height (180 units at 1440 units per in.).
If UPC supplemental or EAN add-on bar codes specify a zero degree rotation and a height less than
or equal to 460 units at 1440 units per in., the top of the bar/space patterns begins at the symbol
reference point. The height of the bar/space patterns equals the specified height, and the total height
equals the specified height plus the HRI height (450 units at 1440 units per in.). Otherwise, the top of
the HRI begins at the symbol reference point and the specified height includes the bar/space patterns
and the HRI.
If UPC supplemental or EAN add-on bar codes specify a 90 degree rotation and a height less than or
equal to 420 units at 1440 units per in., the top of the bar/space patterns begins at the symbol
reference point. The height of the bar/space patterns equals the specified height, and the total height
equals the specified height plus the HRI height (410 units at 1440 units per in.). Otherwise, the top of
the HRI begins at the symbol reference point and the specified height includes the bar/space patterns
and the HRI.
4. Byte 12 selects a Local Font ID, either OCR-A or OCR-B, for use when printing the Human Readable
Information (HRI) beneath the bar code. The list below shows the bar code types that use OCR-A and
those that use OCR-B:
OCR-A OCR-B
Code 128 UPC - Version A
Code 3 of 9 UPC - Version E
