These values change with the degree of saturation of the ribbon. They are thus only valid for a new ribbon.
The module width is standardized with the EAN and UPC codes. The following values are valid for p6 when setting the barcode:
p6 | = 0 | Size: SC 3 1) | ||
p | 6 | = 1 | Size: SC 6 1) | |
p | = 2 | Size: SC 9 1) | ||
6 | ||||
p | = 3 | Size: SC 3 1) | ||
6 | ||||

1)SC 3, SC 6 and SC 9 refer to the DIN standard.
The ratio of wide to narrow is fixed with Code 93, MSI Mod 10/10 and Code 128. p6 is thus not required and is ignored. POSTNET does not require the parameters p4, p5 and p6.
