Scanning Tips
Practice to determine the best scanning angle and distance for your type of barcode.
Scan Angle
For best results, position the scanner at an angle to the barcode, at least 15° from
perpendicular. Otherwise, light can bounce back into the scanner and "blind" the
sensing mechanism.
Aiming Beam
Aim the laser so that the red beam covers the entire width of the barcode.
