Barcode Reporter
Barcode Reporter is designed to test and verify a barcode printed on a package, carton, label or tag before the goods are shipped to your customers and to warn you of any potential problems.

Barcode Reporter is suitable for GS1-13, GS1-8, GS1-128, UPC-A, UPC-E, Code 39, Code 93, Code 128, Codabar, and Interleaved 2 of 5 symbols only.

In addition the following items are required for the components of Barcode Desk:
Barcode Reporter requires a flatbed scanner for acquiring images of printed barcodes with an scanning resolution of at least 1200 dpi (2400 dpi recommended).
