MaxiCode is a two-dimensional bar code developed by UPS (United Parcel Service, Inc.). Data must be defined in a specific way for UPS. Refer to the Guide to Bar Coding with UPS or the AIM MaxiCode Specification for more details about data requirements.

The printer supports modes 0, 1, 2, and 3. Contact us for information about additional MaxiCode modes.

Note: Only the 6037 printer supports the Quick Response bar code.

Mode	Description


0	Obsolete

1	Obsolete

2	Structured Message

3	Structured Message

4	No Known Application

5	No Known Application

6	No Known Application

You can select which mode to use in the bar code field or allow the printer to auto-select the mode (0, 2, or 3) based on your data. See “Defining a Bar Code Field” for more information. MaxiCode automatically pads data with the “!” character.

Note: MaxiCode does not support the NULL character.

Modes 2 and 3 are defined by the way the postal code, class of service, and country code fields are arranged. (The postal code, class of service, and country code are required fields.) Begin with the message header, then the primary data (15 characters), followed by the secondary message (up to 78 characters). Or, begin with the primary data, then the message header, followed by the secondary data. If the postal code data characters are all numeric then the MaxiCode symbol is set to Mode 2. If the characters are alphanumeric, or only contain ASCII characters 65 to 90, then the MaxiCode symbol is set to Mode 3.

If you receive an error 612, check your MaxiCode data. You may have not correctly structured or left out one of the three required fields (postal code, class of service, and country code) or the “~029" character.
