The bar coding function, which enables bar codes to be printed as part of labels,
is one of this machine's most advanced features.
+
This section will explain how to enter a bar code into your text message.
It is not intended as a comprehensive introduction to the concept of bar
coding. For more detailed information, please consult one of the many
reference books available.
Since this machine is not specifically designed for special bar code label
making, some bar code readers may not be able to read the labels.
Use tape with blank characters on white adhesive when making labels
containing bar code.
In Bar code mode, six different parameters can be set, allowing you to create
custom bar code.
