[Supplementary Explanation]
1. NW-7, CODE39, Industrial 2 of 5, Matrix 2 of 5 is valid for Barcode Character Pitch Specification.
For specification method, by specifying right before Character Pitch Specification <P>, it becomes Barcode Character Pitch Specification.
When omitting, the width is as similar as thin space width.
e.g.) Character Pitch Specification (NIL or 0.2)
Character Pitch Specification (1)
Character Pitch Specificatin (3)
2.The explanation word of JAN/EAN-8, JAN/EAN-13, UPC-A is valid based on the following condition.
8 dot/mm(203dpi):{02},{03}is appropriate for thin bar width value.
12 dot/mm(305dpi):{03},{04}is appropriate for thin bar width value
24 dot/mm(609dpi):{06},{07},{08}is appropriate for thin bar width value
[Point]
1.If value not within the valid range is set, it becomes a command error, barcode printing will be stopped.
2.Printing may exceed print area if thin bar width is enlarged.
3.If the valid barcode of character pitch enlarge the Character Pitch <P>, it may not be read by the scanner. And the reading ratio will become worser if
thin bar width is enlarged. Details can be referred to the scanner specification.
4.Specify the thin bar width where the scanner reading condition shall put into consideration.
5.If it is unreadable, adjust Print Speed Specification <CS> and Print Darkness Specification <#E>.
6. When NW-7 and CODE39 is specified, if Start/Stop Character is not included at the print data, although barcode will be printed out but it is
unreadable at the scanner.
7.When JAN/EAN-13, JAN/EAN-8 is specified, if C/D which is included inside of the print data is sent, set an accurate calculation value. If inaccurate
C/D is included, only barcode is printed out but it is unreadable at the scanner.
X Thin Bar Width (2 dot) = Character Pitch (4 dot)
X Thin Bar Width (3 dot) = Character Pitch (3 dot)
X Thin Bar Width (3 dot) = Character Pitch (9 dot)
