Hi Luis,
Read the instructions that came with your barcode scanner, it essentially
acts like a keyboard and types in the barcode numbers. If you want to
see the barcode you would need a barcode font which probably came
with the scanner, but you can obtain free barcode fonts. . Some additional
information at
