US Postnet-Barcode
Postnet is a special US-American type of barcode. It is printed in charac-
ter size. Numeric values from 0 to 9 are printable.
After activating this barcode type, numeric characters from 0 (hex. 30) to
9 (hex. 39) are interpreted as barcode figures. All other characters termi-
nate the Barcode mode. Exception: the TAB function (hex. 09) is allowed
within Barcode mode. The Postnet sequence is accessible in every emu-
lation. The printer can print barcode in NLQ (180 dpi) and LQ (360 dpi). If
draft print quality (DPQ) is selected the printout is performed in NLQ.
The character (e.g. CR = carriage return, hex. 0D), which terminates
the barcode is not printed or carried out.
US Postnet Barcode does not require a barcode bracket.
Example:
ASCII
ESC[1 SP p 12345 CR
HEX
1B 5B 31 20 70 31 32 33 34 35 0D
The numbers 1 to 5 are printed as Postnet stripes.
