You can select which mode to use in the bar code field or allow
the printer to auto-select the mode (0, 2, or 3) based on your
data. See "Defining a Bar Code Field" for more information.
MaxiCode automatically pads data with the "!" character.
Modes 2 and 3 are defined by the way the postal code, class of
service, and country code fields are arranged. (The postal code,
class of service, and country code are required fields.) Begin
with the message header, then the primary data (15 characters),
followed by the secondary message (up to 78 characters). Or,
begin with the primary data, then the message header, followed
by the secondary data. If the postal code data characters are all
numeric then the MaxiCode symbol is set to Mode 2. If the
characters are alphanumeric, or only contain ASCII characters 65
to 90, then the MaxiCode symbol is set to Mode 3.
