Note: A switch from uni-directional to bi-directional printing is only possible if the
parameter UNI-DIRECT.CMD is set to YES via operator panel or
ESC-sequence.
Start Position of Barcode Printing
The start position for barcode printing is the current print position.
For both horizontal and vertical printing, the print position after printing barcodes
is the same line as the start position next to the barcode printed.
