Multiple Scanners: Enable or Disable Invisible Characters

Authors list

If a barcode includes a Tab, Carriage Return or ESC encoded but the scanner does not respond to it, the scanner may need to be configured to enable invisible characters.

Download and print this file: https://dl.waspbarcode.com/kb/scanner/InvisibleCharacters.pdf

Scan the Enable Invisible Characters barcode in the printed sheet to enable invisible character scanning.

Invisible characters:

char name code
HT horizontal tab $I
CR carriage return $M
ESC escape %A

 

This configuration applies to the following scanner models: WWS100i, WWS550i, WWR2900 (with Firmware FM3-b-1.03-IN or newer. Firmware starting with AMC is older and may not work), WCS3950, and WLR8950.
