D. Bar Code Support: 2-D Bar Codes
Two-dimensional (2-D) bar codes (sometimes called matrix symbologies) allow large amounts of data to
be encoded in a small area. The information is represented in a two-dimensional matrix. The printer
supports four 2-D bar code symbologies as shown in the table below.
Column Labels:
Code = Value for Bar Code Type
(Bar Code Symbol Descriptor Byte 12; Bar Code Data Descriptor Byte 16)
Mod = Modifier Value
(Bar Code Symbol Descriptor Byte 13; Bar code Data Descriptor Byte 17)
