.NET Sample prints significantly extra margin to Code 128 Auto barcode label #8

Info: DCD 1.3.1 on Windows 10 1909 x64 Visual Studio 2019 DYMO.Connect.SDK 1.3.1.115 Installation steps followed from WPFSDKSample

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Installation according to WPFSDKSample
  2. Open WPFSDKSample.csproj in Visual Studio 2019
  3. Build Solution
  4. Open DCD 1.3.1
  5. Create new label with Code 128 Auto barcode with some string of text (e.g. 3F21C736502C8A39) and setting extra small
  6. Print label from the DCD 1.3.1 GUI interface (label A)
  7. Save label to label.dymo
  8. Open bin\Debug\WPFSDKSample.exe
  9. Click browse -> select label.dymo
  10. Select printer and roll selection and click print label (label B)

label A is about 7.4cm long (just like the GUI interface shows), label B is 12.4cm (not the same as the preview shows). Actually printed area is about 5.2cm on both labels. This means that labels printed from the SDK waste 5cm of label every label of just unused white space.

[EDIT] Tested with CODE 39 barcode type, and that type has no issues (prints from DCD interface match prints from WPFSDKSample.exe) Also tested with QR Codes, and those match as well, so it specifically seems to be a Code 128 Auto issue.
