6.2.3 Quiet Zone (1D Code Common)
The quiet zone is the blank margin on either side of a barcode that tells the scan engine where
the barcode starts and stops. You can configure the scan engine to decode barcodes that have
smaller start or end margins than specified for the symbology.
Note: Only use smaller margin checks when necessary. This option may increase the possibility
of partial and ghost reads.
