• n4 bar code height (dot count)
Specification A
When the height of the bar code is more than the form feed amount, the form feed amount is
automatically doubled.
Specification B
Form feed at (Bar code underbar characters)

• UPC – E: k = 11 (or 12)
The 12
th
check digit is automatically applied, so it is specified and ignored.
The command is ignored for data that cannot be shortened.
Automatically converts data to shortened form.
• UPC – A: k = 11 (or 12)
The 12
th
check digit is automatically applied, so it is specified and ignored.
• JAN/EAN – 8: k = 7 (or 8)
The 8
th
check digit is automatically applied, so it is specified and ignored.
• JAN/EAN -13: k = 12 (or 13)
The 13
th
check digit cannot be automatically applied, so it is specified and ignored.
• CODE 39: k is freely set, and maximum value differs according to the mode.
Start/stop code (“*”) is automatically applied.
• ITF: k is freely set, and maximum value differs according to the mode.
If data is oddly numbered, a 0 is applied to the top.
• CODE 128: k is freely set, and maximum value differs according to the mode and the print
character type.
The check character is automatically applied.
• CODE 93: k is freely set, and maximum value differs according to the mode and the print
character type.
The check character (“
□ ”) is automatically applied.
• NW7: k is freely set, and maximum value differs according to the mode and the print character
type.
Start/stop codes included in the data (not automatically applied).
