Wired USB means stable use at the counter. No pairing or charging habits.
Plug-and-play usually means it starts working quickly after connecting by USB.
1D + 2D lets you scan classic product barcodes and 2D codes like QR.
CMOS sensor (648×488) is the camera-style engine that reads the code image.
White LED + red aiming bar helps you see where you’re aiming.
USB HID is “keyboard mode”. Many POS apps accept it as typed input.
USB VCP is “Virtual COM Port”. Some software prefers COM-port style setup.
5VDC power matches standard USB power expectations on most computers.
Min resolution ≥ 4 mil helps with smaller 1D barcodes, if print quality is good.
1.5m drop test is a practical reassurance for busy counters and warehouses.
Size and weight matter for comfort if staff scan all day.
Certifications can matter for procurement and compliance checks.
Fit & compatibility
Treat this as a PC/POS USB scanner. Before ordering, confirm your system supports USB HID or USB VCP, depending on how your software connects.
Supported code types (as commonly listed for this model):
QR Code
PDF417
Data Matrix
Compatibility note: This is a wired USB scanner. It is not a wireless 2.4GHz or Bluetooth scanner. If you need roaming scanning away from the PC, choose a wireless model instead.
Stand / hands-free note: Some listings show a stand included, and some do not. If you need hands-free presentation scanning, confirm a stand is included for your required variant.
Practical setup checks to reduce returns
Check your POS device has a free USB port.
If your POS is Android-based, confirm it supports USB barcode scanners.
If your software needs a COM port, plan on using USB VCP mode.
If you just want “scan and type”, use USB HID mode.
For older systems, confirm driver support if you plan to use VCP mode.
If you scan from labels on curved bottles or shiny packs, test print quality first.
If you need to scan tiny 1D codes, keep labels clean and well-printed.
Also known as: CMI-8010.
