How can we help you?
The MS100 is a plug-and-play pen scanner.* It does not require
a driver and should be recognized as a generic HID device by
your computer, similar to a standard keyboard. This allows you
to scan into any field that you could normally type into.
Unitech's professional support team is available to quickly
answer questions or technical-related issues. Should equipment
issues occur, please contact a Unitech Service Representative
at (800) 861-8648 for more information.
*RS232 connections may require additional software
