Description of Bar Codes UPC-A This bar code, consisting of numerals only, has a fixed length of 12 columns; a 11- column number entered from the host or application software plus a check digit (12th column) automatically calculated inside the printer. If the 12th-column numeral is sent from the host, the entire bar code will be printed as it is. Control Character Control Character HRI Character HRI Character ASCII Hex. NULL CODE128 This bar code consists of 103 bar code characters and three code sets, enabling 128 ASCII code characters to be printed.

It has a variable length of columns. When sending print data, note these points: (1) Each string of bar code data must begin with a code set select character (CODE A, CODE B, or CODE C), which selects the first code set to use. (2) Every special character is specified by a combination of two characters: a brace “”.
