Abstract

In the lateral printing method of the barcode of the present invention, a barcode is printed by a laser beam printer, etc. In the past, a separate barcode font is stored in a font memory in order to print the barcode, and the stored barcode font is the same as a general text font. Barcode was printed by handling, that is, the barcode memory was read and printed from the font memory as the barcode data was input. Therefore, the capacity of the font memory for storing the barcode font must be very large. Since the burden of font memory is large, the print speed of the barcode was slow because the space of the barcode was also read by the barcode font according to the stored barcode font. According to the present invention, a barcode designation array table designation array table and a font width designation array table are created and stored in advance without storing a separate barcode font, and the barcode font is generated and printed using the stored array table value. By reducing the capacity of the memory used, the size of the barcode can be adjusted in various ways, and of course, the space can be printed by moving only the print position, thereby improving the printing speed.

Description

How to print barcodes in the horizontal direction

Since this is an open matter, no full text was included.

1 is a view showing the configuration of a general KAN bar code.

2 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of image data for barcode data in a general KAN barcode.

3 is a diagram showing a set decision according to each position of the number of the second flag character and the number of the left hand in the general KAN barcode.

Claims (3)

Specifying the data by inputting the basic width (t), length (L), print position (X, Y), and first flag character of the barcode to be printed, and inputting the second flag character and data 1 to data 10 A second step of storing the result in the array table Ar-CHA [], calculating a check character, storing the check character in the data Twitter array table Ar-CHA [], and storing 0 in a variable (b) indicating the order of the data; The third step of finding the font width of the image data of the barcode using the first flag character input in the process and the value stored in the data designation array table Ar-CHA [] in the second process, and the font width of the barcode found in the third process. Calculate the font width (T) to be printed by multiplying the basic width (t) by the fourth process of printing, and when the printing of the barcode for one data is completed in the fourth process, it is repeated from the third process. Print all barcodes according to data The orientation of the bar code printing method as claimed in claim 5 courses. The method of claim 1, wherein the third process designates a set in the set-specified array table Ar-SET [a] [b], reads a data value from the data-specified array table Ar-CHT [b], and then c = Ar-SET. [a] [b] x 13 + Ar-CHA [b], and the font width is found in the font width specification array table Ar-BAR [c] [d]. The method of claim 1, wherein the fourth process comprises the steps of: determining whether the bar code to be printed is a bar or a space; moving the print position on the Y axis in the case of a space; and length (L) to a font width to be printed in the case of a bar. Transversal printing method of a bar code, characterized in that the step of printing the bar by). ※ Note: The disclosure is based on the initial application.
