Specifies the Reed–Solomon error correction level controlling how much damage (missing / obscured modules) can be recovered. Higher levels increase reliability but reduce data capacity. Pick the lowest level that meets the environmental risk.

Syntax:
public enum Modes.ErrorCorrectionLevel
Fields
High (≈30% restoration). Maximum resilience for harsh conditions (industrial, outdoor, potential obstruction). Reduces available data capacity the most.
H = 4
Low (≈7% restoration). Maximizes capacity; suitable for controlled, high‑quality printing and short‑life usage (e.g., internal IDs).
L = 1
Medium (≈15% restoration). Balanced default for general purpose usage (labels, simple packaging) where minor scuffs may occur.
M = 2
Quartile (≈25% restoration). Increased robustness for retail, logistics or moderate abrasion environments; larger symbol than M.
Q = 3
