If assistance is needed, please contact IDAutomation. More information about this symbology may be found in the GS1 DataBar Barcode FAQ.

Notice: GS1.org recently renamed the RSS Symbology to GS1 DataBar to avoid confusion with the popular RSS XML Feed technology. The name change does not change the barcode standards; therefore, documentation referring to the RSS Symbology is the same as GS1 DataBar. GS1 also recently renamed several barcode standards built on Code 128 such as EAN-128 and UCC-128 to GS1-128.
