Barcode readers run the full spectrum as far as price and features. Cost tends to be a main concern so you may want to decide first how much money you are able to spend on the device. Once you have figured that out, then you will want to find out what scanners are available to you in that price range and what their features are. You will want to decide whether or not you need a laser based scanner or a CCD scanner. The newer of the two technologies is the CCD scanner which is more likely to be able to read the current barcode technology.

Do you need a hand held scanner or one that is mounted on a counter? Will this scanner act only as a point of sale device, or will it also need to be disconnected and used to track your back room stock? If you need something that can be disconnected and used in your stock area, you will want a device that can go wireless and has its own power contained within it.

Once you narrow down your price range, your needs and your expectations, you will be able to find a quality device that is affordable and performs as you require it to perform.
