EPSON Code39
❏Four Code39 fonts are available, allowing you to enable and 
disable the automatic insertion of check digits and OCR-B.
❏The height of the bar code is automatically adjusted to 15% or 
more of its total length, in conformance to the Code39 
standard. For this reason, it is important to keep at least one 
space between the bar code and the surrounding text to 
prevent overlapping.
❏Spaces in Code39 bar codes should be input as “_” underbars.
❏When printing two or more bar codes on one line, separate 
the bar codes with a tab, or select a font other than a BarCode 
Font and input the space. If a space is input while a Code39 
font is selected, the bar code will not be correct.

EPSON Code128
❏Code128 fonts support code sets A, B, and C. When the code 
set of a line of characters is changed in the middle of the line, 
a conversion code is automatically inserted.
❏The height of the bar code is automatically adjusted to 15% or 
more of its total length, in conformance to the Code128 
standard. For this reason, it is important to keep at least one 
space between the bar code and the surrounding text to 
prevent overlapping.
❏Some applications automatically delete the spaces at the end 
of lines or change multiple spaces into tabs. Bar codes 
containing spaces may not be correctly printed from 
applications that automatically delete spaces from the ends of 
lines or change multiple spaces into tabs.
❏When printing two or more bar codes on one line, separate 
the bar codes with a tab, or select a font other than a BarCode 
Font and input the space. If a space is input while Code128 is 
selected, the bar code will not be correct.

and disable the automatic insertion of check digits and OCR-B.
❏The height of the bar code is automatically adjusted to 15% or 
more of its total length, in conformance to the Interleaved 
2-of-5 standard. For this reason, it is important to keep at least 
one space between the bar code and the surrounding text to 
prevent overlapping.
