Barcode Options

The following sub-options help define specific options regarding barcode printing.
UPC Descenders
This parameter allows you to print barcode descenders when human readable data is not present in the
UPC/EAN barcodes.
•
Always (factory default). UPC/EAN barcodes are printed with descenders, even if there is no human
readable data.
•
Never. UPC/EAN barcodes are printed without descenders if there is no human readable data.
•
Only with PDF. UPC/EAN barcodes are printed with descenders only when the PDF command is
present.
Optimized Ratio
This option selects different barcode ratios for certain barcodes including Code 39 and I-2/5. It is included
for compatibility with the IGP-X00 printers.
•
Disable (factory default). Use standard barcode ratios.
•
Enable. Select the alternate barcode ratios.
I-2/5 Selection
This option is added to be compatible with a special IGP-X00 customization. Usually, if I-2/5 barcodes
have an odd number of digits, a leading zero is inserted in front of the data. However, this special IGP-
X00 customization gives you the option of adding a space character at the end of the barcode instead.
•
Leading Zero (factory default). A leading zero is inserted in front of the printable data field.
•
Trailing Space. A space is inserted at the end of the printable data field and a zero is encoded with
the corresponding space in the end of the barcode.
•
X2 DPD. When selected, an I-2/5 barcode with an X2 magnification will use the specially configured
ratios 3:3:6:5 rather than 3:6:9:12 for compatibility issues.
•
Modulo 7 CD. The I-2/5 barcode uses a modulo 7 check digit instead of the default modulo 10 check
digit.
