OCR Programming Parameters
Enable/Disable OCR-A
Parameter # 680 (SSI # F1h A8h)
To enable or disable OCR-A, scan one of the following bar codes.
OCR-A Variant
Parameter # 684 (SSI # F1 ACh)
Font variant sets a processing algorithm and default character subset for the given font. To choose a variant, scan
one of the following bar codes. Selecting the most appropriate font variant optimizes performance and accuracy.
OCR-A supports the following variants:
• OCR-A Full ASCII
!"#$()*+,-./0123456789<>ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ\^
• OCR-A Reserved 1
$*+-./0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
• OCR-A Reserved 2
$*+-./0123456789<>ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
• OCR-A Banking
-0123456789<>
NOTE: OCR is not as secure as a bar code. To decrease OCR misdecodes and speed OCR reading, set an
accurate OCR template and character subset, and use a check digit. See OCR Subset on page 257 and OCR
Template on page 259.
NOTE: All OCR fonts are disabled by default. Enabling OCR can slow bar code decoding. Enabling more than
one OCR font could also slow OCR decoding and impact OCR decoding accuracy.
