[Supplementary Explanation]
• Character pitch means the character gap or font gap when selecting font or barcode.
• Specified character pitch will be widened based on the ratio of Enlargement <L>.
• Even if linefeed code [CR] is specified in Auto Linefeed <E>, the character pitch remains the
same without returning to initial value. Start of Data Transmission <A> can be used to reset to
the initial value.
• By specifying Character Pitch <P> just before the barcode specification, pitch command
becomes valid for barcode module.
Object barcode: NW-7, CODE39, Industrial 2of5, Matrix 2of5
For more information, see (3) Intercharacter gap in [Barcode Command].
• Data specification except numeric value or specification of over-digit will give the initial value.
