Barcodes
Tesco charge £620 (2018 prices) an incident for barcode non-compliance. They raise the problem with their outsourced barcode support desk who determine if the codes are substandard.
Barcode printers can have wrinkled ribbons, worn out printheads and a host of other problems that stop barcodes from reading.
The only way to test if your barcodes are up to standard is to scan them.
Scanning with a smartphone is not recommended, as they can cope with substandard codes better than the laser scanners found in warehouses.
