[Supplementary Explanation]
• Minimum module width can be set to 01 and 02; however, this may not be read properly.
• 01, 02, and 03 are designable for Minimum module height however; it may cause a reading
problem.
• When d=e=00, aspect ratio will be at 1:2 based on the number of print data.
• When specifying security level high, parameter d or e should have large number.
• Maximum number of digit of data is 2,681, but it varies depending on Minimum module size,
Security level and type of print data.
