• Print growth:
Positive or negative size ratio of the printed cells relative to the ideal grid. Is only
calculated as a reference, no quality grade is assigned.
• Reference decode:
Based on a binary image of the code according to ISO/IEC 16022:2006, a code is decoded
using the decoder described in the data matrix standard. If the code can be successfully
decoded, the quality grade "4" is assigned; if not, the quality grade "0".
• Symbol contrast:
Difference between the highest and lowest reflectance of the data matrix surface.
• Unused error correction:
Proportion of error correction information not used for correction of the read result.

(AN_)
L/F border violation (FPD)
This measurement is made in a three-stage process.
There is no direct correlation between the intermedi-
ate results and the quality grade.

This measurement is made in a three-stage process.
There is no direct correlation between the intermedi-
ate results and the quality grade.
Reference only, no grading
