Appears only if you have selected [Readable] in the [Mode] menu. Available only if you have selected [Setting] in the [Set No. of Barcodes] menu.

The setting range is from 1 to 10.

• When excluding first barcode(s) from the check target by setting [Start Position], specify the number of barcodes without the excluded barcodes.

[Start Position]

Adjust the position at which the barcode check starts (position of the barcode checker at which reading starts).

The barcode checker starts reading each media after the specified length passes from the printing start position.

This setting can be used to exclude first barcode(s) from the check target when multiple barcodes are printed on each media.

The setting range varies depending on the print resolution of the product.

The setting range is as follows:

Resolution	S84NX	S86NX
203 dpi (1 dot = 0.125 mm (0.0049"))	10 to 20000 dots	10 to 20000 dots
305 dpi (1 dot = 0.083 mm (0.0033"))	15 to 18000 dots	15 to 18000 dots
609 dpi (1 dot = 0.042 mm (0.0017"))	30 to 9600 dots	-

• You can change the units to dots, " (inches), or mm in the [System] > [Regional] > [Unit] menu.

[VOID Print]

Set whether to print error marks on the media when a barcode reading error or barcode comparison error occurs.

6 x 6 mm (0.24" x 0.24") error marks are printed within the width of the print data image and in a length of up to 30 mm (1.18") from the trailing end of the label. The length varies depending on the image length of the print data and the operation mode.

The options are as follows:

Enabled

If a reading error or comparison error occurs, the product prints error marks on the label without pausing.

After VOID printing, the product prints and checks the same label until it reaches the number of retries specified in [Retry Count]. If the error still occurs after the specified number of retries are done, the product pauses after VOID printing, and shows an error message on the display.

Disabled

If a reading error or comparison error occurs, the product pauses and shows an error message on the display.

• The VOID Print function is not available when the length of the print data is less than 8 mm (0.31"). • The VOID printing length becomes 4 mm (0.16") shorter when the media sensor type is set to [Gap]. • The VOID printing length becomes 1 mm (0.04") shorter when the media sensor type is set to [I-Mark]. • The backfeed amount of VOID printing is 30.0 mm (1.18"). However, if the image length printed on the label to be checked is less than 30.0 mm (1.18"), the backfeed amount will be the same as the image length.

[Retry Count]

Set how many times the product will try to print and check the same barcode after VOID printing when a barcode reading error or barcode comparison error occurs.

Appears only if you have selected [Enabled] in the [VOID Print] menu.

The setting range is from 0 to 10.

　

As long as the error continues to occur, the label is reprinted up to the number of times specified in this setting.

For example, if you set it to 0, if the error occurs while checking the first label, the product pauses and shows an error message after VOID printing. If set to 5, if the error continues to occur until the 6th label, the product pauses after VOID printing for the 6th label, and shows an error message.

[Host Notification]

Set whether to return the barcode check results to the host from which the print data is sent.

The options are as follows:

Enabled

Return the barcode check result of each label to the host as follows:

◦	When the check is successful: <STX>BV, OK<ETX>

◦	When the check is unsuccessful: <STX>BV, NG<ETX>

Disabled

Do not return the barcode check results to the host.
