Common parameter settings—Barcode length
Barcode length (number of characters) for Interleaved 2 of 5 = [barcode data + check digit if
applicable]. The minimum length possible is 2 characters.
Interleaved 2 of 5 always encodes an even number of characters. To handle codes with an odd
number of characters, the MaxiScan 2200 will accept a code with the last character printed as 5
narrow bars. In this case, all useful characters are transmitted.
For maximum security and to optimize reading performance, we recommend that you use one
of the following parameters with the MaxiScan 2200:
