Barcode Basics
Barcoding
has revolutionized the way we do business. It has made collection of data
easier, faster, and more accurate. However, barcodes must be used with
the right equipment and software to improve performance and productivity.
Here are some questions we can help you with when looking for a barcode
solution.
1.
Define Your Needs
What
data do you want to capture?
What will you do with the data after you collect it?
Are
you printing your own labels or using pre-existing ones?
2. Hardware
How sturdy do your barcode readers need to be? Is this for industrial use, warehousing, retail, etc.?How do you want to capture the data? Mobile, stationary, wireless units?
From what distance will you be scanning the barcode? What density is the barcode you want to read?
3.
Software
Will
pre-packaged software meet your needs, or do you need a custom solution?
Do you just need software for the reader, or do you use terminal emulation?
Will
your host system have to interact with the barcode scanners directly or
indirectly?
