Message
Bar code quiet Data validation error: the
zone too small blank zone(s) left or right of
the bar code is not big
enough to meet the minimum
requirement.
Typically, this occurs in forms
where bar codes are placed
too close to other elements,
the bar code is too close to an
edge of the media, or the
media's position is shifting.
The minimum quiet zone on
each end of the bar code
should be ten times the
minimum element width or
1/4 inch, whichever is greater.
In addition, between bar
codes, the validator requires
a minimum distance of 20
times the minimum element
width or 1/2 inch, whichever is
greater.
Calibration The validator has detected
warning that it needs calibration. This
message is a reminder and
does not halt printing.
Checksum Failure The bar code data fails the
checksum check or is missing
the checksum digit.
