Preamble - Intermec Trakker Antares 2460 User Manual

Example: You want to set a postamble that includes quotation marks. Enter the postamble by
scanning this full ASCII bar code label:
Set Postamble to "B"
*/D/KAE/B/B/BB/B/B/B*
*$+AE"""B"""*
You must enclose the data within quotation marks and precede each quotation mark
with another quotation mark so that the quotation marks are not treated as the end of the
data.

preambles include a data location number or an operator number.

use Code 39 in Full ASCII mode. For help, see "Code 39" earlier in this chapter.
