| | Posted: | | | | When I use a UPC scanner to add dvds it adds a 0 before the first digit. This causes the dvd to not be found in the database. However, if I delete the added 0 the dvd is found. I know it is the scanner doing this. I am guessing the added 0 has something to do with the EAN bar codes. I've tried several different dvds and the added 0 always causes the dvd to not be found. Is there anyway for dvd profiler to ignore the first 0 or do I have to continue deleting it? Thanks for your help. |

| | Posted: | | | | Which barcode scanner do you use and does it require any software for it to work?
Unfortunately I can't think of any way of getting Profiler to ignore the leading 0 but other users may have the same scanner as you and found a workround. |

| | Posted: | | | | most scanners can be programmed by scanning a series of barcodes to enable/disable different features. These features include transmitting the check digit or lead zeros. At work we deal with metrologic a lot and they have a program that you can run, select the 'features' you want and print out a sheet with the barcodes to scan. It looks like denso-wave has a similar program on their site I believe you want the setup software scanner setting-Agrare |
