Function/Parameters
Determines the location of human-readable text printed with the bar code.
0 = Use default value
1 = Do not print text
2 = Print text embedded
3 = Print text half embedded
4 = Print text under bar code
5 = Print text above bar code
Add the numbers listed below to produce the corresponding effect:
10 = Prints UPC-A checksum at middle left of the bar code instead of the
bottom left
10 = Prints start/stop * characters with Code 3 of 9 text
20 = Formats German postal bar codes
100 = Prints the checksum character with text
For the UPC-E symbologies, checksum characters are always
printed if human-readable text is specified. The checksum
characters are printed half-height if 100 is added to the p
parameter, and are printed the same height as the text if 100 is not
added to the p parameter.
