p:Postnet

Valid Characters: 0 – 9

Length: Five, 9, or 11 digits (non-numeric data-bytes are accepted but not encoded).

Valid bar dimensions: The width and height multiplier values of 00 will produce a valid symbol. The bar code height field is ignored since the symbol height is U.S. Postal Service specific and is used to produce a zip code on a letter or package for the U.S.P.S.

The following example prints a Postnet bar code:

<STX>L

Q:UCC/EAN Code 128 Valid Characters: 0 – 9 Length: Nineteen digits

Valid bar dimensions: The fourth character of record is the width of the narrow bar in dots. All other bars are a ratio of the narrow bar (2 times, 3 times, and 4 times the narrow bar width). Human readable characters for this bar code symbology are printed above the bar code symbol. The printer spreads a weighted module 103 checksum.

The following example prints a UCC/EAN Code 128 bar code:
