If you are having trouble with your scanner, here is a check-list:

  1. Make sure you are using a browser compatible with our Barcode feature, such as Chrome, Firefox, or Safari. EDGE will not give you good performance.

  2. Make sure your scanner is fully charged (if it is a wireless scanner).

  3. Make sure your scanner is properly connected: If corded, check your USB connection. If wireless, you might need to re-scan the set-up barcodes. Bluetooth connection is going to be the slowest type, therefore, we discourage this type of connection.

  4. Make sure your [Caps Lock] key is NOT engaged.

  5. Make sure your internet connection is up to speed. Perform a speed test. If you have trouble running a speed test, then that is probably your answer. A lagging internet impacts your scanner, too. Make sure there is nothing else pulling on your connection, like someone streaming. A HOTSPOT is not going to be a reliable connection.

  6. Currently, iPads are not compatible with our Barcode feature. Our technicians are working towards a solution. They are very close to a solution even now.
