Code 39 is easy to recognize. It consists of 9 elements 3 of which are wide. It always starts and stops like this I___I_III_III_I I'm using the I to represent the bar width, ie 3 mean 3 wide, and the _ to represent the spaces. Can I send you an image of one? (Code 39)
I also created a bar code FAQ, years ago, with images of a whole bunch of symbologies. Question about your symbol scanner... I'm not very familiar with them... Can you tell it which symbologies to scan? ie turn off / on different ones? Often if they are programmable, you can turn on/off symbologies... could your problems be this simple???
