GS1 Composite (formerly called UCC/EAN-128) uses the same code set as Code 128/GS1-128, except it does not allow function codes FNC2 through FNC4. FNC1 can be sent to the printer as the data string <SUB><SUB>1.

The printer determines whether CC-A or CC-B will be used based on the amount of data sent to the 2D Composite Component.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
m2
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Height of the separator pattern row. Valid only when m1 is set to 0 or from 6 to 12.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
If the value for m2 is set too low, the height is changed to the smallest allowed value for the selected magnification.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
If the value for m2 is set too high, an "invalid bar code data" error occurs.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Range: Between 1 time and 2 times the value set by Width of Line, Box, Bar, or Character Define. For example, if the width is set to 3, the range for m2 is 3 to 6.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Default: 1
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
m3
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Number of columns per row (or the number of segments per row if m1 = 12).
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Setting m1 and m3 to 0 selects the largest number of columns for the 2D bar code to fit within the 1D bar code (including its quiet zones).
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Range: 1 to 30
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Default: 0 if m1 = 0, or 4 if m1 = 12
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
m4
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Enables display of space and parentheses ("(," ")") characters:
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
m4 Description
|
| |
|
+ |
0 Bar code does not include space or parentheses characters in the data, but displays these characters in the human readable interpretive field.
|
| |
|
+ |
1 Bar code and human readable interpretive field include the space and parentheses characters.
|
| |
|
+ |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
m5
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Height of each row in the 2D bar code.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Default: 0 (height is 3 times the magnification value).
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
m6
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Enables printing of the human readable interpretive field:
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
m6 Description
|
| |
|
+ |
0 Human readable interpretive field is not printed
|
| |
|
+ |
1 Human readable interpretive field is printed
|
| |
|
+ |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
The human readable interpretive field for the 2D Composite Component is displayed if Interpretive Field, Enable or Disable is set to 1.
|

Notes
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
The GS1 Composite symbology consists of an GS-128 linear component associated with an adjacent 2D Composite Component.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
The linear component encodes the primary identification so that it is readable by all scanning technologies and so that 2D imagers can use the linear component as a finder pattern for the adjacent 2D Composite Component. The linear components include these bar codes:

|
| |
|

EAN-13
|
| |
|
+ |

|
| |
|
+ |
The 2D Composite Component encodes supplementary data, such as batch number or expiration date. There are three types of 2D Composite Components that are all based on the PDF417 symbology:
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
CC-A is a structural variant of MicroPDF417.
|
| |
|
+ |
CC-B is a MicroPDF417 symbol.
|
| |
|
+ |
CC-C is a PDF417 symbol.
|
| |
|
+ |
2D Composite Components encode characters from the ISO 646 code set..
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
The data for the linear and 2D components is separated by the <HT> command with the data for the linear component sent first. For example, to print a Composite bar code with the linear component encoding 112233445566 and the 2D component encoding aabbccddeeff, the data is sent to the printer as 112233445566<HT>aabbccddeeff.
