Length 2
This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for MSI Length Control. Length 2 is the maxi-
mum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the second fixed length if in Fixed Length Mode.
Length includes the barcode’s check, data, and full-ASCII shift characters. The length does not
include start/stop characters.
The length can be set from 1 to 50 characters. A setting of 0 specifies to ignore this length (only
one fixed length).
Table MSI Length 2 Setting Examples provides examples for setting Length 2. See page 250 for
detailed instructions on setting this feature.
