Common Scanning Mistakes and How to Avoid Them Common scanning mistakes often stem from damaged barcodes, incorrect scan distance, poor lighting, or misconfigured scanner settings. Holding the scanner at the wrong angle or attempting to scan low-contrast or reflective labels can also reduce read accuracy. These issues can be avoided by maintaining clean scanner lenses, using high-quality barcode labels, applying correct printer settings, and training staff on proper scanning techniques. Consistent setup and routine checks help ensure reliable scanning performance and smoother operations.
