Writing implements
Readable marks and unreadable marks depend on the writing instruments used.
This can also differ according to the light source that the reading sensor uses.

"FACOM" type
If paper has pre-printed timing marks, the scanning area (reading area) of targeted
mark frames will be determined by such timing marks.
FACOM type refers to a method of determining the reading zone based on a pair of
start timing and stop timing marks. Other methods include timing control type, direct
under type, and mark to mark type.
