QR-koodistandardi, ISO\/IEC 18004, olettaa tummat moduulit vaalealla taustalla. Tummat moduulit absorboivat valoa ja vaalea tausta heijastaa sit\u00e4.

Symbolin kontrasti 70 % tai enemm\u00e4n ansaitsee parhaan arvosanan, ja alle 20 % on hyl\u00e4tty. Arvioijat tarkistavat my\u00f6s modulaation, joka osoittaa, kuinka tasaisesti vaaleat ja tummat moduulit heijastavat koko symbolin alueella.
