Scanner Cashes  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Scanner cash registers read the respective article number from the so-called barcode or barcode and transfer it to the connected POS system. Thereupon the article description as well as the price is transferred from the database to the cash register, displayed and printed on the invoice receipt.Dies gilt nur für die allgemeinen Scannerkassen. There are special EAN codes, which also contain weight information in the fresh produce area, for example. Omni-directional laser scanners are used to read the barcode in all directions. These have several lines, which are tilted towards each other by a mirror wheel inside the scanner. Thus at least one line can be detected.So the code of the product to be scanned only has to be placed in the direction of the scanner, but the position of the code is irrelevant. At scanner cash registers where large products are to be scanned, for example in a DIY store, the employees additionally or basically only use hand-held scanners. These scanners only read the barcode content, which consists of the UPC or EAN number and can be read in plain text. All other information, such as the price or the name, is supplied from a database in the background or from the complex POS system. Therefore, a certain article can also be stored in different stores with different descriptions.
