^BP — Plessey Barcode

Prints a Plessey barcode: a pulse-width modulated, continuous, non-self-checking symbology.

Syntax^BPo,e,h,f,g

In Labelixa's previewNot applied in the preview (ZPL1002)

What it does

Each Plessey character is built from eight elements, four bars and four adjacent spaces. Print ratios from 2.0:1 to 3.0:1 are supported, and field data is limited to the label width (or length, when rotated).

The guide's value list for h repeats the yes/no values of the neighbouring parameters; the parameter itself is the barcode height in dots.

In the preview

This command changes the printed label, but Labelixa's preview does not apply it yet. The linter reports it as ZPL1002, so you know the preview and the print will differ.

^FO100,75^BY2
