This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for Code 128 Length Control. Length 2 is the

The length can be set from 1 to 80 characters. A setting of 0 specifies to ignore this length (only
one fixed length).
Table Code 128 Length 2 Setting Examples provides examples for setting Length 2. See
