CODE 39 OR CODE 3 OF 9 BAR CODES
The Code 39 bar code is used for many applications
including inventories, hospital applications, or any other
place where the code length may change between items
being scanned (e.g. a bar code stating there were 420
pieces in one box and 20004 pieces in another box would
have a different physical length). This bar code can use
the characters 0 through 9, A through Z, ‘-’ (dash), “.”
