8.1.21 Intelligent Mail Barcode, TCI 48
The Intelligent Mail barcode (also referred to as the 4-State or OneCode) is the term coined
by the United Stated Postal Service (USPS) for the new barcode symbology used to track
and sort letters and flat packages. The Intelligent Mail barcode is a height-modulated
barcode that encodes up to 31 decimal digits of mail-piece data into 65 vertical bars.
The code is made up of four distinct symbols, which is why this barcode was once referred
to as the 4-State Customer Barcode. Each bar contains the central "tracker" portion, and
may contain an ascender, descender, neither, or both (a "full bar").
The D166 command is used to receive and process the Intelligent Mail barcode.
After The ^D166<CR> is issued, it must be followed by a set of ASCII digits that define a
valid string with a <CR> as a terminator. The '-' (dash) may be included only to separate the
tracking code from the routing code. A maximum of 32 characters including the dash is
allowed.
Once the Intelligent Mail barcode data is entered and processed, the barcode image may be
placed using the normal format field by using a TCI of 48.
