Tara, We are using Cardinal large volumes and are not having any problems. We did receive early in our project some IV's with red barcodes and these did not work. We simply changed products. The green works very well. Hope that helps.

Also sometimes the curvature of the bag makes it harder to scan. If you just use your fingers to flatten out the bag a bit, we have found that it will scan every time. We are using Symbol DS6608 scanners. Kathy Hazlett, R.N.

They will not scan. Do we have to re-label them? Dye them neon green ?(just kidding). Has anyone else had this problem?
