Overview 3 Overview Bar Code Discovery lets you create and manage bar code templates to specify the location and type of bar code that users will frequently scan. Other applications such as Scan to Network Premium can then access these templates to reduce the amount of time it takes to scan and identify bar codes on a given scanner.
Optimizing bar code detection 4 Optimizing bar code detection Optimizing bar code detection Tips on scanning bar codes • When scanning one-dimensional bar codes, position them horizontally to match the linear scaling of the bars. • If patterns of text and specks are falsely detected as bar codes, then you can choose to ignore those areas, or you can rescan the page.
Configuring the application 5 Configuring the application Configuring Bar Code Discovery Bar Code Discovery is accessed from the home screen. Creating a bar code template Automatic bar code discovery recognizes the most common bar code types and orientations on A4‑ or letter‑size paper. If you are using a paper size other than A4 or letter or if the bar code is not recognized automatically, then you can search for bar codes manually.
Configuring the application 6 4 Follow the on‑screen prompts to select the paper size and paper orientation. The page is then scanned. Note: Manual configuration searches for codes oriented at 0, 90, 180, and 270 degrees. 5 From the scan preview, select the area or areas where the bar code appears. 6 If you know the bar code type, then touch Specific bar code types to select the bar code type from the list. If you do not know the bar code type, then touch All bar code types. 7 Touch Next.
