Review on 🔍 NuScan1000U - Handheld USB Contact CCD Barcode Scanner by Adesso by Major Lindsay

ASIN: B000GGTTC8, Adesso Contact CCD barcode scanner model NUSCAN 1000U. This is a USB model. First, I should note that this product is listed (on Revain) as CD-ROM, but it is not CD-ROM and does not include CD-ROM. Includes scanner and brochure. The scanner comes with a USB cable and has no other cable options. The booklet contains several barcodes that you can use to configure scanner settings such as scan mode (trigger, auto, toggle) and audio feedback (tone, duration). The brochure is also available in PDF format on the Adesso website. The booklet is not required for normal operation. Installation on WinXP consisted of plugging the scanner into a USB port. After connecting, he played the tune la cucaracha. Using it was just as easy, point and shoot. The scanner button is rubbery but has a nice click so it's very easy to use. The alignment (not pistol style) proved better than expected and it's very easy to hold and scan items over and over again. I was (wrongly) expecting to be able to hold the scanner a few inches from the barcode, but with this type of scanner you have to practically touch the product with the scanner to scan successfully. A successful scan enters barcode numbers into your computer as if you had typed them.
