You must enable and disable each specific bar code type for scanning. Some bar codes require
additional settings. Some bar codes can be printed, but not scanned. See
vs. Scannable Bar Codes" for more information.
We recommend including the specific bar code settings in your application (done by your
Application Developer using the SDK documentation).
