EAN is an international superset of UPC. EAN-13 has 13 digits, with the first two digits representing a country code. The final digit is, as with UPC, a check digit. EAN-8 is a shorter version on the EAN-13 code containing seven data digits and ending again with a checksum.

Keep the following guidelines in mind when printing UPC bar codes:

•If you plan to use a "supermarket-type" in-counter scanner to read the codes, specify a bar code height of at least .9" for an optimal first read rate.

•Make it an early practice to observe the numbering conventions of the UPC Council. Do not label unmarked merchandise with a bar code whose numbers may conflict with those already assigned. If products with these numbers are not in your store now, they are likely to be in the future, causing conflicts in your inventory system.

•The leading Number System Character, (the first number of the 11 digits to be entered) should conform to these UPC assignments:

0,6,7,8 Regular UPC 12 digit codes with numbers assignedby the UPC Council. (Do not use 0 as the leading number for in-store marking).

2Store-marked random weight items of meat and produce.

3Reserved for National Drug Code and Health Related Items.

4Use this leading digit for in-store marking of non-food items.

5Reserved for coupons. Do not use this today, or you will not be able to process coupons through your system tomorrow.

Supplemental codes

The UPC standards include the addition of a 2 or 5-character supplemental code as well as the Extended Coupon Code. To read the supplements, you must first enable them using the RF Terminal Setup Menu.

NOTE: Enabling the supplements disallows the reading of UPC codes from right to left to assure that the 2 and 5 digit supplements are not get missed. Coupon codes can be read from right to left or left to right.

ISBN Specifications

ISBN (International Standard Book Numbering) bar codes are essentially EAN-13 with a 5 digit supplement, where the first 3 digits are the Bookland country codes of 978 for books and 977 for periodicals. Although the bar code contains 18 characters, the ISBN format uses only 9 of them, along with a newly calculated Mod-11
