Opticon OPN2001 – Review

24 May 2012 by Ing. Lele

I highly recommend this hand scanner. It is so much better than the CS-1504. It’s more powerful (scans smaller bar codes), hold hundreds, if not thousands more bar codes. I have both the CS-1504 and the OPTICON OPN-2001. I use the MiniPro scanner software to extract the bar codes and export to several formats.

Scanner was code compatible with a couple minor exceptions – use Symbol documentation if you want to program directly in Java using Java Com or the OPN2001 API documentation if you want to use JNI with the OPN2001 supplied dll

I downloaded USB drivers which work with Windows 7 64 bit. Downloaded also a firmware update; quick start guide; User manual; just all the necessary applications/drivers/other info to get this Wonderful Scanner up and running.
