Aiming
On a typical UPC 100% bar code symbol, hold the scanner between contact and 7 inches from the symbol (see
). Ensure the scan line crosses every bar and space of the symbol.
Figure 2-3
Acceptable and Incorrect Aiming
The scan line is smaller when the scanner is closer to the symbol and larger when it is farther from the symbol.
Scan symbols with smaller bars or elements (mil size) closer to the scanner and those with larger bars or elements
(mil size) farther from the scanner.
Do not hold the scanner directly over the bar code. Laser light reflecting
directly
back into the scanner from the bar
code is known as specular reflection. Specular reflection can make decoding difficult.
