Print Internal Variable Barcode Data
The following command will use data described by internal variables such as Date, Time
or Counting fields:
<ESC>$b#Y 0x1b 0x24 0x62 <value> 0x59
Since the length of the data at any given moment is unknown by the host, this provides a
means for internal data fields to be processed into barcodes. Refer to section “PJL GPIO
Write Test” for the details on usage of internal data fields and for a “<value>” parameter
to specify in the command.
Default Barcode Parameters
Several of the barcodes provided by the printer are user configurable including line
width, barcode heights and the bar/space ratio. The table above contains the default
values for the user configurable parameters. Note that every effort has been made to
insure every resident barcode produced by IntelliBar Mi Series Barcode Printers are
within industry specification. Upon deciding to modify these values, be aware that some
barcode scanners may not be able to property decode the barcode. Also note that any
modified values are not stored permanently in the printer. Once the job of labels has
completed, the default values are restored.
