Hold at an angle

Do not hold the scanner directly over the bar code. In this
position, light can bounce back into the exit window and
prevent a successful decode.

Scan the Entire Symbol

• The scan beam must cross every bar and space on the sym-
bol (as in the left bar code shown below).
• The larger the symbol, the farther away you should hold
the scanner.
• Hold the scanner closer for symbols with bars that are close
together.
NOTE: LS 3000 series scanners require no user maintenance.
