Module height:

3 to 5 times the module width Vertical size of the symbol: approximately 5 mm {0.20"} or more • The recognition rate of ladder bar codes and two-dimensional symbols may vary depending on widths of the modules, print density, environmental temperature, type of paper, and characteristics of the reader. Make sure to check the recognition rate beforehand to determine the settings and use conditions so that the restric- tions of the reader are satisfied. • Reading quality of multi-gradation bar codes and two-dimensional symbols is not guaranteed. • When printing a ladder barcode or two-dimensional symbol that is created as a graphics data, set the print speed to level 5. 118
