Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between 1D and 2D barcode scanners?

1D scanners read traditional linear barcodes (like UPC codes), while 2D scanners can read both linear barcodes and 2D codes like QR codes and Data Matrix. 2D scanners are more versatile and can capture more information, making them ideal for modern applications.

Do I need a rugged scanner for my warehouse?

If your environment involves potential drops, dust, moisture, or extreme temperatures, a rugged or ultra-rugged scanner is recommended. Standard scanners work well for retail and office environments, while rugged models are built for industrial and warehouse settings.

What connectivity options are available?

Barcode scanners come with various connectivity options including USB (wired), Bluetooth (wireless), and RS-232. USB is the most common for stationary setups, while Bluetooth offers mobility. Choose based on your workflow needs and existing infrastructure.

How do I choose between handheld and presentation scanners?

Handheld scanners are ideal when you need to scan items in different locations or orientations. Presentation scanners are hands-free and work best for high-volume checkout environments where items are brought to the scanner, like retail point-of-sale.

Are these products compatible with my existing software?

Most barcode scanners work as keyboard wedges, meaning they input data as if typed on a keyboard, making them compatible with virtually any software. Check the "Compatible with" section on each product for specific platform support (Windows, iOS, Android, Linux).
