FONT SELECTION

You may select either of the US POSTNET character sets from the front panel, or through escape sequences. (Refer to your User’s Manual for details on front panel menus.)

The following escape sequence will configure the 4.0 cpi POSTNET BAR CODE as a secondary font:

ESC)0K

ESC)0KESC)s4.0H

The sequence above sets the secondary font symbol set to 4.0 cpi POSTNET BAR CODE, and sets the pitch to 4.0 cpi. Once the Secondary character set is configured for 4.0 CPI Postnet Bar Codes, the Shift Out command can be used to activate the bar codes:

Shift Out:

hex 0E

After the bar code is printed, the normal print mode is activated by using the Shift In command:

Shift In:

hex 0F

NOTE: It is recommended setting the US POSTNET Bar Code character set as the secondary set, with the normal operation mode as the primary font.

Perform the following steps to determine the check digit for 45834-8844-70:

2.Subtract from the next highest multiple of ten:

60 - 51 = 9

The check digit is 9.
