(*) : To indicate only year and month, DD must be filled with “00”
(**) : Plus one digit for length indication
(***) : Plus one digit for decimal point indication
Each subfield's format is expressed as the format of the Application Identifier number + the
format of the associated data. Each subfield must adhere to the format specified or else the
printer will be unable to locate following subfields, causing errors in printing.
Any variable length subfield (unless it is the last subfield in a field) must be terminated by the
characters "#6" (without quotes). These characters are translated to the Code 128 "FNC1"
character, which is specified by UCC/EAN-128 as the variable-length field terminator. The "#6"
is not printed.
When printing a UCC/EAN-128 text field, the printer automatically surrounds each application
identifier number with parentheses, and follows the right parenthesis with a space character.
Do not use parentheses or spaces when specifying an application identifier string.
Several application identifiers (00, 01, 22, 8003) specify fields that will have a check digit as
part of their data. A character must be included in the check digit place (although it need not
be the correct check digit.) This character is used only as a placeholder and will not be printed.
The printer will calculate the correct check digit and replace the character already there.
