15Configuring the Optional Barcode Scanner

If you have a barcode scanner attached to your mailing system, you can configure it to scan:

•account names,

•account codes (Business Manager only),

•speed codes (INVIEW™, Budget Manager only),

•Custom and Normal Presets,

•Job IDs, or

•ZIP Codes

if you are in the INVIEW™, Budget Manager or Business Manager accounting systems.

NOTE:

•You cannot scan in account information using a barcode scanner if you are using the Standard Accounting package provided with your system.

•You can use a barcode scanner to scan in barcodes for USPS Special Ser- vices regardless of the accounting system you are using. USPS Special Services do not require any set up operations here.

Refer to the appropriate topic in this section:

•If you are using an accounting system on your mailing system you can set the default scan type so that your system recognizes your particular accounting application when it scans the barcode. Refer to Setting the Default Scan Type.

•If you are attempting to scan barcodes that were defined for other accounting systems and those accounts contain a prefix, you can set up your system to recognize that prefix when it scans in the barcode. Refer to Adding Barcode Prefixes.

•If you need to combine multiple barcode scans into a single barcode, refer to Combining Barcodes.

•If you want your system to require an operator to press the Enter key to accept each barcode value after it is scanned and displayed on the IntelliLink® Control Center screen, refer to Setting Auto-Enter.
