CODE128 • Specify a character string of 2 to 255 digits. • Specify either a start code or code selection characters (CODE A, CODE B, or CODE C) for the first two digits. • Indicate special characters with a combination of ‘{’ followed immediately by a single character. • Adding a check mark to Automatically Convert Symbol Overall Width to Minimum results in the overall width of the Code 128 symbol being automatically converted to the minimum. Use this function when it is not necessary to specify a code set and you want to print barcodes by only inputting data for a desired symbol. Manually specify the code set if not checked.
If code set C is specified, consider the two created digits as ASCII decimal numbers and specify the corresponding ASCII character(s). Example) “37”: Specify as “%”. “65”: Specify as “A”. “979899”: Specify as “abc”. • An error occurs if the data immediately following ‘{’ is not as indicated below. • Special HRI characters are expressed as follows. 28 Control characters ASCII Control characters ASCII Control characters ASCII SHIFT {S CODE C {C FNC3 {3 CODE A {A FNC1 {1 FNC4 {4 CODE B {B FNC2 {2 '{' {{ Control characters HRI characters SHIFT Not printed CODE A/B/C Not printed FNC1-4 Space is printed Control characters (00h to 1Fh, and 7Fh) Space is printed
