Printing Conditions
Too Dark - Dark labels are fairly obvious. The normal bar code bars
increase in size, and the openings in small alphanumeric characters may
fill in with ink. It may be readable but not “In Spec”. Rotated bar code
bars and spaces will run together.
Slightly Dark - Slightly dark labels are not as obvious. The normal
bar code will be “In Spec”. Small character alphanumerics will be bold
and could be slightly filled in.The rotated bar code spaces are small
when compared to the “In Spec” code, possibly making the code un-
readable.
