Chapter 4 Handling • Composite: Turn on the check box to print the 2D symbol with a composite sym- bol. Separate the data specified to a composite symbol and a 2D symbol with “\ |” or “| \”. Describe the data in the order of the composite symbol and the 2D symbol. Example: 1234567890\ |012345678905 • Use a Quiet Zone: Leaves a blank margin on the right and left side of 2D symbols for better readability. The 2D symbol printing position is moved based on the amount of margin. 2 Make settings of the following items according to the selected [ Type ]. • PDF417 Module Width: Makes settings of the module width for PDF417. Module Height:
Makes settings of the module height for PDF417 by the ratio to the module width. Column: Input the number of columns for PDF417. Step: Input the number of steps for PDF417. Truncation Symbol: Turn on this check box when making a symbol without the stop code. Error Correction Level: Select an error correction level for PDF417. The data can be read even if the part of the symbol is broken, and restoration ratio becomes higher for bigger numbers. • QRCode Model: Select a QRCode model. Module: Select the width of cell (module) for QRCode. Version: Specify the version for QRCode.
The number of characters that can be converted into 2D symbols is different depending on the version of QRCode. Error Correction Level: Select an error correction level for QRCode. The data can be read if the part of the symbol is broken and restoration ratio becomes higher in the order of level L, M, Q, H. 4 • GS1 DataBar Stacked Module: Sets the module width for GS1 DataBar Stacked. • GS1 DataBar Stacked Omnidirectional Module: Sets the module width for GS1 DataBar Stacked Omnidirectional. • GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked Module: Sets the module width for GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked. Num Of Chars: Sets the maximum width for GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked.
