Solution
Try one of these solutions:
• Make sure you aim the scanner beam so it crosses the entire bar code
label in one pass.
• The angle you are scanning the bar code label may not be working
well, or you may be scanning the label "straight on." Try scanning the
bar code label again, but vary the scanning angle.
• The bar code label print quality may be poor or unreadable. To check
the quality of the bar code label, try scanning a bar code label that you
know scans. Compare the two bar code labels to see if the bar code
quality is too low. You may need to replace the label that you cannot
scan.
• Make sure the bar code symbology you are scanning is enabled. If
your bar code symbology is disabled, enable it and then try scanning
the bar code label again. For help, see "Scanning Bar Codes to Enable
Symbologies" in Chapter 3.
Try setting the Scanner Selection command to the specific input device
you have attached. Check the bar code symbologies you have enabled on
the terminal. Enable only the symbologies that you are using.
