Postal Symbology Type

Usage:	The following 1D Postal Symbologies are used in mail sortation, auditing, certified mail, registered mail, metered mail, and point-of-sale (POS) applications.
Definition:	Determines the postal symbology that will be decoded by the imager. Postal symbology decode performance depends on accurate sampling density information. Sampling density is determined by measuring the width in pixels of a symbol image and then dividing that value by the width of the actual symbol in inches or meters. For example, an image of a one-inch-wide symbol that is 200 pixels across would have a sampling density of 200 dots per inch. The following table shows the range of supported sampling densities.
	Symbology	Minimum Sample Density	Maximum Sample Density	Unit of Measurement
	U.S. Post (POSTNET, PLANET, USPS4CB)	80	310	dots per inch
	U.S. Post (POSTNET, PLANET, USPS4CB)	3150	12205	dots per meter
	Australia Post	86	332	dots per inch
	Australia Post	3386	13071	dots per meter
	Japan Post	84	324	dots per inch
	Japan Post	3307	12756	dots per meter
	Royal Mail, KIX	82	317	dots per inch
	Royal Mail, KIX	3228	12489	dots per meter
	UPU	80	310	dots per inch
	UPU	3150	12205	dots per meter

Default:	Disabled
Options:	0 = Disabled
	1 = U.S. Post (POSTNET, PLANET, USPS4CB)
	2 = Australia Post

	5 = KIX
	6 = UPU

U.S. Post (POSTNET, PLANET, USPS4CB)

When U.S. Post is enabled (<K460,1>), the imager will only decode POSTNET, PLANET, and USPS4CB symbols.

Important: POSTNET Status, PLANET Status, and USPS4CB Status are enabled by default. However, if any of the three U.S. Post symbologies is set to disabled individually, symbols of that type will not be decoded by the imager even when U.S. Post is enabled.

For example, if U.S. Post is enabled but POSTNET Status is disabled (<K460,1,0>), POSTNET symbols will not be decoded by the imager.
