Symbology - Intercharacter Gap
The Code 39 and Codabar symbologies have an intercharacter gap that is customarily
quite small. Due to various bar code-printing technologies, this gap may grow larger than
the maximum size allowed, causing the scanner to be unable to decode the symbol. If this
problem is encountered, then the “Large Intercharacter Gaps” parameter should be
scanned, to tolerate these out-of-specification barcodes.
