*: You can set the ratio when the barcode type is Code39, ITF, and Codabar.
Cautions:
 The above values are valid when using paper recommended by Epson.
 Before using the barcode, print the barcode and check the scan quality.
 Ladder barcodes are subject to decreased scan quality due to missing dots or skewed ink drops. Therefore, we
recommend using the fence barcode.
 When printing ladder barcodes, take measures against poor barcode scanning such as printing HRI characters.
 When using a special media type or barcode type, use the following recommended values.
