6. Blemish (Non-ISO Parameter)
A blemish error is defined as any mark or artifact that destroys the decode on
any part of the barcode symbol (see Figure below).
Within the
ISO/IEC parameters
box, there is a
Blemish
measurement. Although a
blemish error is not considered to be a part of the ISO standards, it is an
extremely useful tool when troubleshooting printing problems. The Blemish
parameter is not figured into the Overall grade
unless the
Allow non-ISO
blemish to affect grade
feature is checked on the
Setup Tab
screen.
A Blemish is also a measurement of bar height consistency. Be sure to position
the blue box so that it represents the actual height of the barcode image.
Note:
A blemish can only be measured where there are decodable lines
above and below the offending mark.
