4 Sampling
In the inspection of bar code print quality, the sampling plan shall be made according to the inspection category and the applicable sampling standard:
a) Continuous batch of purchase inspections with several manufacturers to choose from and end-of-manufacturing inspections with confirmed users shall adopt GB/T 2828.1 to determine the sampling plan;
b) Single-batch purchase, process and end-of-manufacturing inspection shall adopt GB/T 13262 to determine the sampling plan;
c) Inspection of production process stability shall adopt GB/T 2829 to determine the sampling plan;
d) Inspection and acceptance shall be carried out by the supplier and the purchaser, and sampling agreement has been made in the contract shall determine the sampling plan according to the agreement;
e) When the overall quantity of bar code quality supervision and inspection supervision is large, GB/T 14437 shall be adopted to determine the sampling plan;
f) When the overall quantity of bar code quality supervision and inspection supervision is small, GB/T 15482 shall be adopted to determine the sampling plan;
