The requested number of rows (V2 parameter) must be specified when using the HP BarDIMM Pro version 3.3A. The following default PCL with no parameters are invalid: • Esc(s24840T-This does not work on HP; the row parameter must be specified. • Esc(s16,2v24840T-This works on HP; default line bar height with two rows are specified. • Esc(s,2v24840T-This works on HP; the default line bar height is specified. The following is an example of specifying all three V parameters, using the default values for V1 and V3, with two rows: • Esc(s16,2,20v24840T HP documents the bar widths (B parameter) in their reference manual, but varying B1 or B2 does not affect the bar width of the symbol. When B1 is specified in the datastream, Codablock F is generated properly. Improper use of the B parameters can result in a deformed and unreadable bar code from HP BarDIMM. The B3 and B4 parameters are not used. HP does not parse or use the PCL S "Space". Bar code descriptor for Data Matrix Field Name Esc (s#T Esc(s#1B Type name Range n/a Default (if not specified) n/a int Minimum: 10 (dec) or 0A (hex) Minimum value is 1, but the module may be too small to be readable. Maximum: There is no maximum value, but larger bar codes use up more memory. Description Required 24820T Optional Small module height in dots (1/600 inch). Since the Data Matrix modules are square, this parameter also determines the small module width. Note: Using a value of 0 is the same as using a value of 10 (default). Notes: • HP BarDIMM specification contains only the PCL "B" parameter by itself. • The Data Matrix symbol automatically increases in size two-dimensionally. • Up to 88 numeric digits (i.e., repeating 0-9) produces a single Data Matrix symbol. However, an 89-digit symbol will morph into a 2x2 Data Matrix of 4 symbols. This behavior repeats with larger data (for example, 408 to 409 digits produce a 4x4 symbol, and 1632 to 1633 digits produce a 6x6 symbol). Two-dimensional bar codes 32
