11. Restrictions and notes regarding EAN13:
- if n is [12]
10
,then the eXtendo
®
printer will calculate the checksum.
12. Restrictions and notes regarding Code 39:
- The first and last characters must be ‘*’ (required by code 39 syntax).
13. Restrictions and notes regarding ITF:
- Only the digits 0 – 9 can be encoded by ITF, and they are sent as ASCII characters
- ITF bar code must have an even number of digits, including the checksum
- The last digit in the ITF bar code is the checksum.
14. Restrictions and notes regarding Code 128.
- There are three subsets of Code128 (Code128A, Code128B and Code128C).
- The first data character (d1) specifies which character set is to be used.
- The d1 character must be either [103]
10
(subset A), [104]
10
(subset B), or [105]
10
(subset C)
in order to manually select a subset. If d1 is any other value than [103]
10
, [104]
10
or [105]
10
,
then d1 will be treated as data to be encoded.
- If a subset is not specified, the eXtendo
®
printer will automatically select the appropriate
subset depending upon what data is to be encoded in d1…dn.
- Note that the value of n must include d1, regardless of whether it’s data or a subset code.
- Please note that subset C is intended for the creation of more compact Code 128 bar codes
when only numeric data is being encoded.
The following table shows the value encoded for data (d) depending upon which subset is
selected.
