Defining Field Options 4-9
Using Option 31 (Calculate Check Digit)
The printer generates a check digit when Option 31 is applied to the field. Do not use this option
if the field contains a UPC, EAN, or Code 39 (with the MOD43 check digit) bar code.
Syntax R,31,gen/ver,check digit # |
R1. R Option Header.
R2. 31 Option 31.
R3. gen/ver Enter G to generate a check digit.
R4. check digit # Specifies a check digit scheme. Enter a number that identifies a
check digit scheme that has been defined. For more information,
see “Using Check Digits
.” Range: 1 to 10. 1 is the default.
Example R,31,G,5 |
Generates a check digit using the previously defined check digit scheme 5.
Using Option 42 (Price Field)
Apply options to automatically insert monetary symbols. Do not use this option with Option 31
(define a check digit) or Option 60 (increment or decrement a field). This option is not
recommended for bar codes. When determining the maximum number of characters, add the
maximum number of digits and the monetary symbols.
Syntax R,42,appear_code |

Use the monetary formatting packet to select monetary notations
and symbols by country setting. See “
Defining the Monetary
Formatting Packet” for more information. See Appendix C, “Symbol
Sets/Code Pages,” to make sure the monetary symbol is printable
in the font selected for this field. For monetary symbols other than
the dollar sign, use the internal symbol set.
