GS ( k   <Function 069>

Settings of this function affect the processing of GS ( k   <Function 081> and GS ( k   <Function 082> .

Error correction level is specified by either "level" or "ratio."

Error correction level specified by "level" (m = 48) is as follows. In this case, the error correction level set by the " Ratio Setting" is canceled. The number of the error correction codeword is fixed regardless of the number of codewords in the data area.

n	Function	Number of error correction codeword
48	Error correction level 0	2
49	Error correction level 1	4
50	Error correction level 2	8
51	Error correction level 3	16
52	Error correction level 4	32
53	Error correction level 5	64
54	Error correction level 6	128
55	Error correction level 7	256
56	Error correction level 8	512

Error correction level specified by "ratio" (m = 49) is as follows. The error correction level is defined by the calculated value [number of data codeword × n × 0.1 = (A)]. The number of the error correction codeword is changeable in proportion to the number of the codeword in the data area.

Calculated value (A)	Correction level	Number of error correction codeword
0 – 3	Error correction level 1	4
4 – 10	Error correction level 2	8
11 – 20	Error correction level 3	16
21 – 45	Error correction level 4	32
46 – 100	Error correction level 5	64
101 – 200	Error correction level 6	128
201 – 400	Error correction level 7	256
401 or more	Error correction level 8	512

The error correction codeword calculated by modulus 929.

Settings of this function are effective until ESC @ is executed, the printer is reset, or the power is turned off.
