Bar code quiet
zone too small
Datavalidation error: the
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,
thebar cod e is too close to an
edge of the media, or the
media’s position is shifting.
The minimum quiet zone on
eachend 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
widthor 1/2 i nch, whichever is
greater.
1. Fix the application.
2. Disable Quiet Zone in
the VALIDATOR menu.
