Bar code W1D / W1d or ESC enh q:
QR Code
This is two-dimensional bar code and has variable length.
When this code is generated, QR code information such as error correction level,
mask number, data input modes and data, is specified. Available data input modes are
manual setting mode in which a character mode is selected manually, and automatic
setting mode in which character modes are switched automatically. Data divided into
multiple QR codes can be concatenated. In order to concatenate such divided QR
codes, Bound data (Bound mode identifier, code number, number of divisions and
parity data) should be placed before QR information.
Depending on the bar code type, some parts of the specification method are different
as seen in the model selecting method.
Specification of the bar code types
ESC extension : For both manual setting mode and automatic setting mode
W1D
: For manual setting mode
W1d
: For automatic setting mode
(Model 2, Error correction standard level and alphanumeric
mode are fixed.)
The following parameters should be set after a bar code type is specified.
Selection of models
QR codes have two types as shown below and either of them is selected and
used.
Model 1: Original specification
Model 2: Specification of extended function of improving position
correction and handling large-capacity data
Model selecting methods
・
At the time of ESC ext q specification
Select a model at the position for setting a bar code height in the bar
code field (3-digit number setting)
Set value (3-digit number)
Other than 002 --- Select Model 1
002
--- Select Model 2
・
When W1D is specified
Select a model at the head of the file format.
Note:
Some of the firmware is not compatible with Model 2. In this case,
specification for the model 1 is always used no matter what model
is selected.
