Definition of parameters

This bar code command can have the following parameters in the parameter segment (n ... n). As parameters are effective within the single command syntax ESC i n ... n \, they do not apply in the bar code commands. If certain parameters are not given, they take the preset settings. The last parameter must be the bar code data start (‘b’ or ‘B’) or the expanded character data start (‘l’ or ‘L’). Other parameters can be given in any sequence. Each parameter can start with a lower-case or upper-case character, for example, ‘t0’ or ‘T0’, ‘s3’ or ‘S3’ and so one.
