Creating New Barcodes

Ed

28 Mar, 2013 06:23 AM

Hi,

I would like to be able to create barcodes for products that don't have a barcode yet.

I tried adding a made-up barcode to the product and printed it, but it would not scan!

Is this possible? Some of my suppliers don't provide products with barcodes.

Best,

Ed

    Ed,

    I am sorry that you are having this problem. Can you confirm that the barcode is 5 to 8 alphanumeric characters. Then test the barcode scanner by opening TextEdit (in Applications folder) and scan barcodes from other items (e.g., a book, any package, etc.); the number should appear in the TextEdit window.

    If the scanned items do not appear in Text Edit, then the scanner needs to be set to the factory default settings.

    Regards
    Michele
