Setting up a 2D Scanner Supplied by Whittier Mailing Products or Window Book

If you purchased your scanner from either Window Book or Whittier Mailing Products it is probably a Honeywell Xenon 1900 series or a Motorola DS-4208. Most scanners will not scan these out of the box. Also, you want to make sure that there is a carriage return (CR) or carriage return–line feed (CRLF) added to the end of each scan. Also, some scanners may have the option to insert commas between the IMb data elements. Though it should be OK, it has not been tested. Also, some scanners that decode IMb’s may add trailing zeros to 25 and 29 digit non-automation IMb’s. This feature needs to be disabled as the Tagger does not support trailing zeros at this time.
