Rose, When we say "successful images" we are referring to images that did not come back with "failed to send" or "image timed-out." We are not referring to the tag that is provide for the said image.
As for taking the picture, there's a beep that goes off when an image is in focus. We recommend that if you're taking a picture of a bottle of water or something of similar size, then do it at a distance of 8-10 inches away. The bigger the item the further you'll need to step back. However, if you are looking to get the label of a bottle read to you, then consider taking the picture 6-10 inches away from the area where you believe the label is located. Unfortunately, there's no sure way for us to tell you how to take the picture. This requires a bit of trial and error.
