15 2D code object
15.12 Specify filling pattern parameters for QR Code and Data Matrix
Set the filling pattern parameters for QR Code, Micro QR Code, iQR Code, Data Matrix and
GS1 DataMatrix.
• To edit the parameters of a 2D code object, select the object in the object list or in the
marking image editor.
The parameters are displayed in the category below the object list.
• For “Filling pattern”, select one of these options:
“Horizontal line”, “Vertical line”, “Horizontal raster”, “Vertical raster”, “Dot”, “Circle”, “Font”.
‒ “Horizontal raster”, “Vertical raster”: If the modules are next to each other, they are
drawn simultaneously during the marking process.
‒ “Dot”: The filling pattern is marked with one-shot of the laser.
‒ “Font”: Specify a character code from the 2D code pattern font. You can set a
character code for each code element.
The illustration shows an enlarged detail of a QR Code and below the corresponding
filling patterns of that detail.

For “Horizontal line”, “Vertical line”, “Horizontal raster”, “Vertical raster”, the following options
are available:
• “Filling width per module [mm]”, “Filling height per module [mm]”:
The actual marking line is shorter than the specified filling value. The reason is that the
line width value set for “Line width (calculation value) [mm]” in the “Object group” settings
is subtracted.
