● Set as shown below for print item to which QR code or Micro QR is to be set:
(i) Number of lines : 1 line
(ii) Character size : 18×24, 24×32 (for QR code), 12×16 (for Micro QR), QR33 (for QR code 33×33)
● Set barcode type on the print format screen.
● Set error correction level on the various print setup screen.
For Micro QR, printing will be performed in error correction level M even if level Q selected.
If QR code 33×33 will be set, error correction level has to be set to M in advance.

● Input characters within the specified digit number for print item to which barcode has been set.
● When alphabet letters and numerals occur together number of characters which can be coded will vary
depending on character array.
● "QR code printing" is added on "User environment setup" screen. It makes users possible to select the
direction of QR code / Micro QR code to be printed.
● Please check if QR code / Micro QR code can be read properly by barcode reader before executing this new
function of "QR code printing".
[Note]
● Please confirm the readability of DM with actual usage conditions (Print size, Print speed, Barcode
reader, etc.) in advance, and use this function.
● If cell size of 2 dots is used by the user who is already using DM(16×16) with cell size of 1 dot,
please note that the print speed is reduced because the number of print dots increases.
