8.1.19 Datamatrix, TCI 47
A Data Matrix code is a two-dimensional matrix barcode consisting of black and white "cells"
or modules arranged in either a square or rectangular pattern. The information to be
encoded can be text or numeric data. The version implemented in the printer supports ECC
200 and uses Reed-Solomon error correction. The maximum number of characters
supported in the printer is 1000 characters.
The D164 command is used to receive and process the Datamatrix barcode with the
elements discussed below.
Once the Datamatrix barcode data is entered and processed, the barcode image may be
placed using the normal format field by using a TCI of 47.
