Data
The Write Bar Code command transmits data that is processed into a bar code
symbol and then outputs the symbol. This command contains parameters that
locate the symbol reference point within the bar code object area. The WBC
command also contains the variable bar code data for printing as bar/space
patterns and information about printing the code in human readable form.
A flag byte contains information as to whether a human readable interpretation
(HRI) is to print, whether the HRI is to be above or below the bar/space patterns,
and for the 3 of 9 code, whether the HRI of the start/stop character (a star or
asterisk) is to print or not.
