This manual explains the settings for using BarTender to print out bar codes with TM-C3400

When using BarTender to print out bar codes, the scale of the bar width and space width might change

as shown below, making the bar code difficult or even impossible to read with a scanner. Therefore, first

you will need to optimize the printer information for BarTender, and then set the bar code object to the

recommended minimum values.

❏Optimizing printer information (page 2)

• BarTender Ver.9.20 or later (page 2)

• BarTender Ver.9.10 or earlier (page 4)

❏Barcode Object settings (page 6)

• Barcode (page 6)

• 2D symbol of stack type (page 8)

• 2D symbol of matrix type (page 9)

Caution:

After optimizing the printer information, set the Barcode Object.

You might not be able to set the recommended minimum value for the Barcode Object.
