only the 5th/9th/11th-digit data is printed with Oki Data (due to Oki Data specifications).
Since, for the purpose of use of POSTNET bar codes, the 5th/9th/11th-digit data are used, data for
digits other than 5th/9th/11th digit are not printed as bar codes.
*2 Data other than numeric values, if any, will be deleted.
*3 The character type of the interpretation line is independent of the module width value of ^BY. Font
A is used in any case.
*4 To print the interpretation line above code, the interpretation line parameter (parameter f) needs to
be set to “Y.”
*5 If the command is sent without setting data (only ^FS and ^XZ are set while ^FD^FS and ^FD are
not set), the barcode will not be printed.
