Bar code printing apparatus.

摘要

In a bar code printing apparatus a character string and data characters for printing a bar code are first input, and a print key is operated. When the data read from a text memory of the apparatus are character data, the apparatus creates dot pattern data for printing the character string as per the character size selected. When bar code starting data are read, the data following the characters are read out and converted into bar code data. After the data representing a left-hand side margin (LM) of the bar code are generated, dot pattern data constituting the bar code are created in accordance with the height of the character size selected. Then, a right-hand side margin (RM) of the bar code is generated. <IMAGE>
