Common questions

Can I use a Zebra scanner with any computer or system?

Most Zebra scanners are plug-and-play and work with standard Windows and Mac systems. For more advanced models, you may need to install drivers or software provided by Zebra. Always check the product specs for compatibility with your system as shown on all of our products at 123ink.ie.

What’s the difference between a handheld scanner and a handheld terminal?

A handheld scanner connects to a computer and sends scanned data directly to your screen. A handheld terminal, however, has its own display and operating system, allowing it to process and show scan data independently. Terminals are great for mobile workflows in warehouses or logistics.

What’s the difference between 1D and 2D scanning?

A 1D scanner reads traditional barcodes (the kind you usually see on product packaging). A 2D scanner, on the other hand, can read both barcodes and QR codes, making it a more versatile choice. If you need to scan a variety of codes, a 2D scanner is the way to go. You can easily order Zebra scanners online at 123ink.ie.
