Setting Barcode Options
When adding a barcode to your label, several options can be accessed to customize how your
barcode(s) are formatted and printed. Options available are as follows:
Legend Type: This setting is used to select the Legend Entry Mode. Pressing the <Barcode>
key allows you to toggle between Text and Barcode. When set to Barcode mode, all text
entered on the line/label print as a Code 39 barcode. The Status Bar (first line on the LCD)
displays a B to indicate you are in Barcode mode.
Bar Height: This setting can be accessed from the Barcode submenu on the Setup Menu. This
option allows you to set the height of your barcode(s). Heights range from 1 to 26 millimeters
and can be increased/decreased in one-millimeter increments.
CheckSum: Available for Code 39 only, a check digit is appended to increase data integrity,
providing insurance that the code is set up appropriately for its assigned application.
Expansion: This option allows selection of the number of times to horizontally expand a
barcode in increments of once, twice, three times, and four times its original width.
Human Readable: This setting is also accessed from the Barcode submenu on the Setup
Menu. This option allows you to determine whether your barcode(s) are printed together with
human readable text (toggles on and off). Barcode human readable text print at a font size of 2
(5 point) up to 9 (14 point).
Rotation: This option, located on the Setup sub-menu named Style, allows you to set the
rotation of your barcode(s) in one of four orientations (0°, 90°, 180°, 270°). This allows you to
create both picket fence and ladder style barcodes. Please note, however, that all lines on the
legend (text and/or barcode) print at the rotation selected. Lines cannot be rotated
independently.
