Use Code 39 full ASCII to enter ASCII control characters or lowercase 
characters as data. You should also enable Code 39 full ASCII to use 
ASCII command characters. 
For example, you encode the data “sample” in Code 39 full ASCII as 
follows: 
*+S+A+M+P+L+E* 
*+S+A+M+P+L+E* 
In Code 39 non-full ASCII, this label decodes as +S+A+M+P+L+E. In 
Code 39 full ASCII, this label decodes as sample
Code 39 mixed-full ASCII 
Use mixed-full ASCII when printers encode the same label two different 
ways. For example, if you have a bar code with the data %a, some printers 
encode the data as follows: 
*/E+A* 
*/E+A* 
In the Full ASCII Table on page 284, /E represents %. If you configure 
the terminal for Code 39 full ASCII, the terminal decodes the data as %a 
because there are three valid full ASCII character pairs to represent the 
data. 
Other printers encode the data %a as: 
*%+A* 
*%+A* 
The % is a valid Code 39 character in the non-full ASCII character set. 
However, the terminal will not decode this label if it is configured for full 
ASCII, because the data is not represented by valid full ASCII character 
pairs. To decode the label correctly, you need to configure the terminal for 
mixed-full ASCII. 
When you configure the terminal for Code 39 mixed-full ASCII, the 
terminal will decode both of the labels above as %a. 
Mixed-full ASCII interprets any valid full ASCII character pairs that 
appear in the label, but does not require that all data be encoded with a 
valid full ASCII character pair. If you are uncertain how your labels are 
encoded, configure the terminal for mixed-full ASCII, which decodes all 
valid Code 39 labels. 
If you configure the terminal for Code 39 full ASCII, you should check for 
Code 39 mixed-full ASCII. Mixed-full ASCII does not apply when you 
configure the terminal for non-full ASCII. 
 
Note: The interpretive text shown under bar code labels does not always 
accurately reflect the data that is encoded in the label. The interpretive text 
represents how the label should be decoded.
