oW Command - Customize Bar Code Parameters

Description: This command allows the advanced program- mer to modify specific bar code parameters to exceed the specified bar code’s design toler- ances, i.e. reduce the bar code size.

Using the oW command may cause bar codes to be- come unreadable by some or all bar code scanners.

Syntax: oWp1,p2,p3,p4,p5

Parameters: p1 = Initial width narrow white bar. Default value is 2

p2 = Initial width narrow black bar. Default value is 2

p3 = Initial width wide white bar. Default value is 4

p4 = Initial width wide black bar. Default value is 4

p5 = Initial bar code gap. Default value is 3

The oW command is a global printer command.

❏They can not be issued inside of a form.

❏They must be issued prior to issuing a bar code command (and printing).

❏Use only one bar code format. Using more than one bar code may cause unpredictable results or operation.

❏Issue all 5 command parameters (p1-5 ). Use the default parameter values as place holders.

❏Bar code printed with this command should be printed in the picket fence orientation (0º & 180º rotations) to maximize scanning.
