A complete PCL5 BarDIMM barcoding command is built by combining different commands and parameters


Barcode parameters must be combined in a PCL5 sequence ending with the T parameter, e.g.:
<Esc>(s4p305h24v7,21s7,21b24670T


End the data to the barcode with a valid PCL5 regular font sequence, such as:
<Esc>(10U <Esc>(s0p12hbs4099T


When using default parameters, only the commas are required if other parameters have not been defined, e.g.:
<Esc>(s6p1,,,5s24850T


Parameters cannot have decimals, i.e., “2.5” is invalid.



T parameter Esc(s#T (Typeface): barcode symbology
p parameter Esc(s#p – caption text format
b parameter Esc(s#1,#2,#3,#4b – bars
v parameter Esc(s#v – bars height
h parameter Esc(s#h – caption text font
