Lab Test Results:
This scanner performed exceptionally well in IDAutomation lab tests. For a CCD scanner, it focuses very well on barcodes and the USB interface makes it very easy to use. This scanner read small linear barcodes such as IDAutomation's Code 39 barcode font and Code 128 bar code font when printed as small as 6 points with a 600 DPI printer. The scanner also reads small PDF417 2D codes well - IDAutomation was able to scan the PDF417 Font when printed at just 3 points. These scanners read PDF417 much better than laser scanners that can read PDF417 (and not very many laser scanners can). To scan PDF417 barcodes with a CCD scanner, it is necessary to move the scanner's aiming beam from the top to the bottom of the barcode while keeping the aiming beam horizontal with the top. If interested in quick, omni-directional, point and click readings of PDF417 barcodes consider the high quality 2D Imagers. This scanner works very well on small linear barcodes also.
