The Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) family contains three linear symbologies: • RSS Limited encodes 14-digit EAN/UCC item identification with indicator digits of zero or one in a linear symbol for use on small items that is not scanned at the point-of-sale. • RSS Expanded encodes EAN/UCC item identification plus supplementary AI element strings such as weight and "best before" date in a linear symbol that can be scanned omnidirectionally by suitably programmed point-of-sale scanners. • RSS-14 Stacked is a variation of the RSS-14 symbology that is stacked in two rows and is used when the normal symbol is too wide for the application. It comes in two versions: - an RSS Truncated version for small item marking applications, and - a larger RSS Stacked Omnidirectional version which can be scanned omnidirectionally. Note: Forms and Bar Code Card does not support the RSS Stacked Omnidirectional bar code. One-dimensional bar codes 27

following PCL 5 emulation commands:
Note:
The third command in the sequence depends on whether you want to print slashes

Bar code descriptor for RSS-14
RSS-14 is a linear symbology that encodes the full 14-digit EAN/UCC item identification in a linear
symbol. This can be scanned omnidirectionally by suitably programmed point-of-sale scanners. The
Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) family contains three linear symbologies:
RSS Limited encodes 14-digit EAN/UCC item identification with indicator digits of zero or one
in a linear symbol for use on small items that is not scanned at the point-of-sale.
RSS Expanded encodes EAN/UCC item identification plus supplementary AI element strings
such as weight and “best before” date in a linear symbol that can be scanned
omnidirectionally by suitably programmed point-of-sale scanners.
RSS-14 Stacked is a variation of the RSS-14 symbology that is stacked in two rows and is
used when the normal symbol is too wide for the application. It comes in two versions:
an RSS Truncated version for small item marking applications, and
a larger RSS Stacked Omnidirectional version which can be scanned omnidirectionally.
Note:
Forms and Bar Code Card does not support the RSS Stacked Omnidirectional bar
code.
