Version 3.00 Feb. 2019 3.5.2 Printing Size Because the size of MAXI CODE is fixed, printing is done at a fixed size that is unaffected by the Width and Height parameters. An error occurs only when the Width and Height parameters fall below zero. If the two dimensional barcode cannot fit into the print area (depending on the paper width, layout settings, etc.) then OPOS_E_ILLEGAL is returned and at this moment ResultCodeExtended becomes zero.
