Citizen CMP-10 manual For Standard Mode, Description of Bar Codes

[Caution]

For (1):

•This command ends with a NUL code.

•For UPC-A or UPC-E, the bar code is printed when 12 bytes of bar code data have been entered, and the subsequent data is handled as normal data.

•For JAN13, the bar code is printed when 13 bytes of bar code data have been entered, and the subsequent data is handled as normal data.

•For JAN8, the bar code is printed when 8 bytes of bar code data have been entered, and the subsequent data is handled as normal data.

•The data of ITF bar code must have an even number of columns. Should the data have an odd number of columns, the last column is ignored.

For (2):

•Numeral “n” indicates the number of data items, and the subsequent “n” bytes of data are handled as bar code data.

•If “n” is out of the range, the processing of the command is aborted, and the subsequent data is handled as normal data.

For STANDARD MODE:

•If “d” is out of the range, only a paper feed is executed, and the subsequent data is handled as normal data.

•If the bar code is wider than the print area for one line, the bar code is not printed, but only a paper feed is executed.

•The amount of paper feed corresponds to the height of the bar code (Including the HRI characters if HRI character printing is specified), irrespective of the line feed width set by a command such as ESC 2 or ESC 3.

•This command only works if no data exists in the print buffer. If any data exists in the print buffer, the data subsequent to “m” is handled as normal data.

•After the bar code is printed, the beginning of the line is taken as the start position for the next print.

•This command is not affected by any print modes (Emphasis, double strike, underline, and character size), except for the inverted character mode.

[Description of Bar Codes]

<For print examples, refer to page 56>

UPC-A

This bar code, consisting of numerals only, has a fixed length of 12 columns; a 11- column number entered from the host or application software plus a check digit (12th column) automatically calculated inside the printer. If the 12th-column numeral is sent from the host, the entire bar code will be printed as it is.

UPC-E

This bar code, consisting of numerals only, has a fixed length of 8 columns; the first number system character is “0” stationary. A 12-column numeral entered from the host or application software is compressed to 8 columns with a check digit attached and then is printed. The 12thcolumn check digit is automatically calculated inside the printer. If it is and sent from the host, the entire bar code will be printed, compressed to 8 columns.

JAN-13(EAN)

This bar code, consisting of numerals only, has a fixed length of 13 columns; a 12- column number entered from the host or application software plus a check digit (13th column) automatically calculated inside the printer. If the 13th-column numeral is sent from the host, the entire bar code will be printed as it is.
