When the m parameter is set to 1 (m = 1), the printer does not print the human readable character.

Example:

<x

1B5B66 - barcode setup command prefix

0600 - setup data length (low byte first) - x0006, 6

B4 - barcode type = Code 39

01- module width = 1 = 0.017 inches for 248x 0.012 inches for 249x

00 - space width adjustment = default

3804 - height (low byte first) - x0438= 0.50 inches

00- control byte: check digit by host, print human readable character

>

Although the c parameter has a value of x00, which tells the printer to print the human readable character, the m parameter has a value of x01, which causes the b1 bit value of the c parameter to be ignored. No human readable character is printed.

Be cautious when sending commands to change the page length and mar- gins. The barcode print area cannot exceed the page length, bottom mar- gin, or right margin.
