Thanks Veena for this valuable info..
I would like to know about different Barcode Scanners which can give me maximum benefit with reasonable cost.
Please throw some light on Barcode Scanner's features and thier costs of aquisition.
Hi KhanAyub,
There are diff types of BarCode Scanners. It all depends on these factors:
Scanning Depth
Scan Speed
Optical Range
Optical System
Handsfree operation
and S/w Packaged with it.
They start from 3000 Rs. But Reasonable Good BarCode Scanners are Somewhere > 5000 Rs.
