There are many barcode scanners on the market. You will find numerous price options. You will see lots of features. But what do you really need to be looking for? The answer is relatively simple. The scanners should be unidirectional (like shinning everywhere at the same time), they should be able to scan non-flat surfaces easily. When you also want added security for your business, consider a 2D Barcode scanner. This will allow you to scan driver's licenses for age verification.
The Metrologic MS3780 Fusion features a 20-line omnidirectional scan pattern which allows for more flexible scanning of barcodes. This means that you can scan the barcodes in all orientations; upside down, backwards, and forwards, especially helpful during inventory checks in small storerooms.. Or if you need to skip over a palate of vodka you can, with the push of a button switch to single-directional scanning and continue without skipping a beat. the flexibility and hands-free operation along with power saving technologies make this an ideal choice for your liquor store.
Only 6 states’ drivers licenses do not have the 2D barcode on the back of their drivers licenses. We listed the states that require a 2D barcode scanner below. This 2D scanner will give you peace of mind and more importantly, safe guard against a huge lawsuit for selling alcohol to a minor. The 2D barcodes on the back of most states’ driver’s licenses now holds information about the license holder such as eye color, weight, if they’re an organ donor and luckily for you their birthdate which can easily be forged on the front by the growing fake ID business. These barcodes are not easily replicated and therefore insure further safety and security of your liquor business.
