Tally Genicom 6600 manual EAN/UPC Barcode, Error Code

Chapter 11 Barcode Printing

EAN/UPC Barcode

(X, Y = unregarded):

Table 2	Header Parameter	Normal	Compressed 1)
Enlargement	z = 0	1.95 : 1	1.30 : 1
factor	z = 1	1.60 : 1	0.95 : 1

1) These values are true, if “Compressed Print” is selected in the menu (see print feature [F]).

2) It is recommended to set the bar width equal to the space width (x=y).

3) Printer-dependent reference value.

All values are only valid when a new color ribbon is used. The values change depending on the degree of wear:

•narrow bar: approx. -0.05 mm

•narrow space: approx. +0.05 mm.

Code EAN 128 and EAN/UPC are based on module widths. Only the X parameter is valid for this type. This parameter is used for the Y parameter (narrow bar width). The Z parameter has no meaning. In combination with the normal/condensed feature, 8 widths result (see Table 1 on page 233).

Error Code

Wrong characters in a control code or in a barcode test (e.g. an undefined character in a certain barcode type) cause the barcode error sign to print.
