Reading Techniques

The scanner's viewfinder projects an aiming dot. This dot should be centered over the barcode for a good read, but can be positioned in any direction. Hold the scanner over the barcode, press the button, and center the aiming dot on the barcode. The aiming dot appears smaller when the scanner is closer to the code and larger when it is farther away. Hold the scanner close to smaller barcodes and farther away from large barcodes for a proper read. If a barcode is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), tilt the scanner at an angle to scan it.

• Standard Product [Barcode for Standard Product Defaults]
