Code 16K was developed by Ted Williams in 1989 to provide a simple to print and decode multiple row symbology. Williams also developed Code 128, and the structure of 16K is based on Code 128. The code is a continuous, variable-length symbology that can encode the complete ASCII 128-character set. It is mainly used in the health care industry.
