Re: Portable Barcode Scanner for 3590?

[Palmadesso Jack]

I am not sure if this is the right place to do this but I'll do it anyway.

Every once in a while some NT admin clobbers permissions of the root of some
gigantic directory.  What they always end up asking me is "Can I restore
just the ACLs of the affected directories instead of the entire structure?"
My answer is always no you have to restore everthing or you have to change
it all back manually.  Niether of these answers pleases them much.
Obviously its thier fault so its just their tough luck but I think that this
would be a great addition to the product.  Are there any plans to do so?

Or am I completely wrong and there is a way to restore individual acls?  In
that case I'll go back into my corner and be quiet.

Thanks

Jack

I talked with a guy over at EDP, who says this label
was code39, but modified at the request of STK.
when IBM made their barcode readers, they decided to
just support the STK standard.
They talked with Symbol a while back to develop barcode readers
that will work with these, and the symbology was called
"Tri-optic Code39"
So, we found a number of these scanners on Symbols web site
(considerable more expensive than I thought) that supported this
standard.

However, when we first started looking for this, a reseller
claimed they sent symbol a sample of our labels, and they said
they didn't have anything that will scan it

I am trying now to get a demo of the trioptic scanner to try myself.

But I don't think they have a standard start or stop code/char...
We ran into the same problem about a year or two ago.
Good luck in finding something that will read it 'cause we couldn't

I looked all over the place and found references that
this is a code 39 type label, but our code 39 scanner
could not scan it.

Shawn - From info I compiled in http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts:

3590 barcodeIs formally "Automation
Identification
Manufacturers Uniform Symbol
Description
Version 3", otherwise known as Code
39.
It runs across the full width of the
label. The two recognized vendors:
Engineered Data Products (EDP)
Tri-Optic
Wright Line Tri-Code
Ref: Redbook "IBM Magstar Tape
Products
Family: A Practical Guide", topic
Cartridge Labels and Bar Codes.

I should think that those two vendors could either supply or guide you to a
supplier of such a barcode reader.
