Operation

Scanning Items

To scan items using the scanner, slide or push them through the scan zone as
shown on this page. The scanner will work equally well with either a left-to-
right or right-to-left motion through the scan zone. There is rarely a need to
reorient an item's bar code since the scanner can "see" the left, right, front and
back side, as well as the bottom of an item.
Here are some tips for best scanning
results:

Quick Reference Guide
Don't favor either the hori-
zontal or vertical scan win-
dows. Keep items in their
natural orientation.
Remember to slide or push
items rather than picking
them up. By avoiding any
gripping, twisting and rota-
tion of your hands and
wrists, you can prevent
repetitive motion injuries.
This technique also relieves
you from possibly lifting
thousands of pounds per
day.
Note that eyes...

scanner "sees."
