Description
Sets the height n of the barcode generated – each height unit corresponds
t a dot of 0.125 mm, so the final height is n x 0.125 mm where 1 - n
- 255. The default is n=162.
Determines the width of the barcode, where n=2 corresponds to nor-
mal width, n=3 is double width and n=4 is quadruple width. The
default is n=3.
Choose the position of the human readable information (HRI) of the
barcode.
n=0: No HRI
n=1: On top of the barcode (default)
n=2: On the bottom of the barcode
n=3: Both on top and on the bottom of the barcode.
Sets the font used to print the human readable information (HRI). The
default is n=0.
n=0 or n=48 – normal
n=1 or n=49 – condensed
