Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent reading efficiency from being reduced, by arranging the same bar codes in parallel and printing them by shifting each bar code in the perpendicular direction to the height direction of the bar. CONSTITUTION:The 1st stage of bar code 1 and the 2nd stage of bar code 2 are shifted by d1 in the direction of bar height and d2 in the perpendicular direction to the bar height direction respectively to print them. Therefore even if one bar code can not be read out at the time of reading, recovery is made possible by reading the other bar code again.

Scanning techniques for retrieving information from labels, patches, documents, etc. in machine-readable format have been used in a wide variety of applications. Barcodes are extremely effective as an input format for various types of data input and programming equipment, and have recently been used for large-scale production management at production plants, ranging from relatively small-scale POS inventory management. The scope of application has been expanded to a wide extent.

The reversal development method is used to produce traces. The characteristics of the reversal development method are:
As is well known, it is possible to print at a high degree for ordinary characters and line drawings such as diamond lines, but due to the edge effect, it is only possible to print at a relatively low degree for solid printing and high-density printing. It has the disadvantage that it is not.

An object of the present invention is to prevent a decrease in the reading rate when barcodes are printed using the electrophotographic apparatus described above. This method is designed to reduce the percentage of unreadable barcodes by printing them in a direction perpendicular to the barcode direction.
