GS h n

1D 68 n

 

 

Sets the height n of the barcode generated – each height unit corresponds

 

29 104 n

 

 

t a dot of 0.125 mm, so the final height is n x 0.125 mm where 1 - n

 

 

 

 

- 255. The default is n=162.

 

 

 

 

 

GS w n

1D 77 n

 

 

Determines the width of the barcode, where n=2 corresponds to nor-

 

29 119 n

 

 

mal width, n=3 is double width and n=4 is quadruple width. The

 

 

 

 

default is n=3.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Choose the position of the human readable information (HRI) of the

 

 

 

 

barcode.

GS H n

1D 48 n

 

 

n=0: No HRI

 

29 72 n

 

 

n=1: On top of the barcode (default)

 

 

 

 

n=2: On the bottom of the barcode

 

 

 

 

n=3: Both on top and on the bottom of the barcode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sets the font used to print the human readable information (HRI). The

GS f n

1D 66 n

 

 

default is n=0.

 

29 102 n

 

 

n=0 or n=48 – normal

 

 

 

 

n=1 or n=49 – condensed
