[Notes]
1. The inter-character pitch of the barcode is valid at CODABAR (NW-7), CODE39, Industrial 2of5 and Matrix 2of5.
The barcode inter-character pitch is set by specifying the character pitch <P> immediately before.
If not set, the inter-character pitch will be of the same size as a space command.
Example) Inter-letter pitch (Not specified / 0 / 1) x Narrow bar width (2 dots) = Inter-character pitch (2 dots)
Inter-letter pitch (2) x Narrow bar width (3 dots) = Inter-character pitch (6 dots)
[Tips]
1. If a value outside of the valid range is set, a command error occurs and the print out is not executed.
2. Widening the narrow bar width, can result in falling out of the printing range.
3. When using a barcode that allows the inter-character pitch, and specifying a large character pitch <P>, it might happen that the
barcode scanner is unable to read the information properly. Enlarging the narrow bar width can result in reduced readability of
the barcode. Please refer to Specifications of scanner for more information.
4. Adjust the narrow bar so that the barcode is easily readable by the barcode scanner.
5. If the barcode is still not readable, lower the print speed <CS> or adjust the print darkness <#E>.
6. When using codes like the CODABAR (NW-7), CODE39, include a start / stop character otherwise, the print can be executed,
but the scanner will not be able to read the data.
7. When using JAN/EAN13, JAN/EAN8 codes with C/D in the print data, be sure to calculate the right value. If the C/D value is not
right, the print can be executed, but the scanner will not be able to read the data.
