Bar Code Command Set
Unit Module Sizes for Rotated Bar Codes
Note: H=120H x 72V PQC setting and L=60H x 72V PQC setting except for UPC
type 90 and 270 degree orientations where both H and L=120H x 144V.
Unit Module Sizes for 90-Degree and 270-Degree Bar Codes
Unit Module Sizes for 0-Degree and 180-Degree Bar Codes
Notes:
1. The meaning of byte 17 (modifier byte) is dependent upon the bar code type.
For the meaning of this byte, see “Bar Code Type, Name, and Modifier
Description and Values” on page 125.
2. BCDD bytes 18 and 21-26 and WBC command byte 0 are not applicable to
Postnet. The Postnet specification defines values for these parameters.
3. H=120H x 72V PQC setting and L=60H x 72V PQC setting.
