What are the main types of barcode scanners?

A barcode scanner should be chosen according to the workstation, scanning frequency and level of mobility required. Handheld models are suitable for everyday checkout, stocktaking or order preparation, while fixed scanners provide automatic or hands-free barcode scanning.

Wireless barcode scanners	For greater freedom of movement in shops, stockrooms or warehouses.
USB barcode scanners	A simple and stable connection for tills, counters and fixed computer workstations.
Fixed barcode scanners	Hands-free scanning suitable for checkout stations and environments where frequent scanning is required.
1D barcode readers	Designed to read linear barcodes commonly used on products, packaging and documents.
2D barcode readers	Compatible with 2D codes such as QR codes, as well as many 1D barcodes.
Rugged barcode readers	Designed for demanding environments where resistance to drops, dust or intensive use is essential.

How to choose the right barcode scanner

OK Identify the codes you need to scan : choose a 1D reader for linear barcodes or a 2D model for scanning QR codes.
OK Determine the level of mobility required: if you need to move around a counter or warehouse, choose a wireless model.
OK Choose the connection: USB for a fixed workstation or wireless connectivity for greater mobility.
OK Consider scanning frequency: for repeated scanning, a fixed or hands-free scanner can help streamline your workflow.
OK Consider the environment: for warehouse and intensive use, choose a model with an appropriate level of durability.
OK Check compatibility: make sure the scanner works with your software, terminal or POS system.

Professional barcode reader for retail and logistics

1D or 2D barcode scanner: what's the difference?

A 1D barcode scanner reads traditional linear barcodes made up of vertical bars. It is suitable for a wide range of applications in retail, logistics and stock management. A 2D barcode reader can also decode two-dimensional formats such as QR codes. If your business uses different types of codes or you need more versatile equipment, a 2D scanner is generally the better option.

Barcode scanning across different industries

Professional barcode scanners and readers are used across a wide range of industries. In shops and retail environments, they speed up product identification and checkout. In warehouses and logistics, they make stocktaking, goods receiving, order preparation and traceability easier. They are also used in industry, delivery services and other environments where fast and reliable product identification is essential.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions

What is a barcode scanner?

A barcode scanner is a device that reads and decodes the information contained in a barcode and sends it to a computer, till or other terminal. Barcode scanners are commonly used for checkout, stocktaking, logistics and traceability.

What is the difference between a barcode scanner and a barcode reader?

In this context, the terms barcode scanner and barcode reader generally refer to the same type of device. Handheld barcode scanners are models designed to be held and operated by the user.

Which barcode scanner should you choose for a shop?

For a fixed checkout, a USB scanner or fixed hands-free model may be suitable. If you need to scan bulky products, carry out stocktakes or move around the shop, a wireless barcode reader provides greater mobility.

Should you choose a 1D or 2D barcode scanner?

Choose a 1D scanner if you only use linear barcodes. A 2D scanner is more versatile as it can also read QR codes and other two-dimensional formats.

What is the difference between a USB and wireless barcode reader?

A USB barcode reader remains connected to the workstation by cable and is particularly suitable for fixed workstations. A wireless barcode reader gives you greater freedom to move around the workstation or storage area.

Can a professional barcode scanner read a barcode displayed on a screen?

It depends on the scanner technology. Models that use imaging technology, including many 2D barcode scanners, can generally read codes displayed on a smartphone or other screen. Check the specifications of your chosen model to confirm this feature.
