<ESC>BKaabbcddeeffffnn...n

aa= Minimum module dimension (03-09 dots). Will not print if values of 01, 02 or greater than 10 are specified.

bb= Minimum module pitch dimension (04-24 dots). Will not print if values of 01, 02, 03 or greater than 25 are specified.

c= Security (error detection) Level (1-8).

dd= Code words per line (01-30). If 00 is specified for both

ddand ee, the printer automatically optimizes the number of rows per symbol.

ee= Rows per symbol (00 or 03-40). If 00 is specified for both

ddand ee, the printer automatically optimizes the number of rows per symbol.

ffff= Number of characters to be encoded (0001-2700). nn...n = Data to be printed.

Example:	BK0304400000021
Placement:	Immediately preceding data to be encoded
Default:	None

Printer Output

Special Notes	1. When the code words per line and the number of rows per symbol
	(“dd” and“ee”) are set to all zeroes, the printer will calculate the
	optimum configuration.
