• Make sure your bar codes have clearly defined dark bars and clean
white spaces. If the bars are so light that they are gray instead of

printing of the bar codes is the problem. Whoever is printing the
bar codes needs to make the necessary corrections.
• The bar code should also have a “quiet zone” of at least ¼” to the
left of the first bar and to the right of the last bar. Make sure to
start your scanning to the left of the bar code in the “quiet zone”,
moving the scanner quickly and smoothly as if drawing a line
through the bar code. If using a laser scanner or CCD scanner,
make sure the beam covers the bar code completely.
• If using a laser or CCD, clean the window of the scanner with a
soft cloth.
