Recommended Barcode Usage
18pt Plain - 8cpi
·
Recommended for use with hand-held laser or fixed-array CCD array scanners only; hand-held wands have
mixed results.
·
The limited resolution of the LN03 makes more densly printed barcodes more prone to mis-reads.
24pt Plain - 6cpi
36pt Labeled
·
Good general purpose size for most applications.
36pt Plain - 4cpi
·
good for machine readable labels for cartons.
·
legible even if reduced up to 70% of original size.
