ing of the order of its contents:
• Label Identifiers
• Setting Label ID Locations

Label
Identifiers
Symbology-specific label identifiers comprise one or two ASCII charac-
ters that can precede or follow bar code label data as it is transmitted to
the host. The host may use these characters as a means of distinguish-
ing between symbologies.
Industry standards have been established for symbology-specific label
identifiers, and are listed in the table below. Most scanners will have
factory default identifiers preset to these standards.
