Abstract
A barcode label comprises a carrier surface, such as a reflective surface on a paper sheet, having thereon a barcode in at least three or more different densities, each density having an optimum reading distance different from the others. The label is preferably pressure sensitive. Also, for certain applications, the label is curved to have or otherwise has an upper lip shading the barcode from overhead light.
Claims7
