Supported Point of Service peripherals

This topic describes the hardware support for each of the Point of Service device classes.

Barcode Scanner

Connectivity Support
USB

Windows contains an in-box class driver for USB connected barcode scanners which is based on the HID POS Scanner Usage Table (8c) specification defined by USB.org. See the table below for a list of known compatible devices. Consult the manual for your barcode scanner or contact the manufacturer to determine how to configure your scanner in USB.HID.POS Scanner mode.

Windows also supports implementation of vendor specific drivers to support additional barcode scanners that do not support the USB.HID.POS Scanner standard. Please check with your barcode scanner manufacturer for vendor specific driver availability.

Barcode scanner manufacturers please consult the Barcode Scanner Driver Design Guide for information on creating a custom barcode scanner driver

Bluetooth

Windows supports Serial Port Protocol - Simple Serial Interface (SPP-SSI) based Bluetooth barcode scanners. See the table below for a list of known compatible devices. Consult the manual for your barcode scanner or contact the manufacturer to determine how to configure your scanner in SPP-SSI mode.

Webcam

Starting with Windows 10 version 1803, you can read barcodes through a standard camera lens from a Universal Windows Application. It is recommended that you use a camera that supports Auto Focus and a minimum resolution of 1920 x 1440. Some lower resolution cameras can read standard barcodes if the barcode is printed large enough. Barcodes with thinner elements may require higher resolution cameras.
