Intercharacter Gap Size - Symbol DS 3478 Product Reference Manual

13-64 DS 3478 Product Reference Guide

Intercharacter Gap Size

The Code 39 and Codabar symbologies have an intercharacter gap that is typically quite small. Due to various bar code-printing
technologies, this gap can grow larger than the maximum size allowed, preventing the digital scanner from decoding the symbol. If
this problem occurs, scan the Large Intercharacter Gaps parameter to tolerate these out-of-specification bar codes.
