Make a Symbol barcode scanner work with Mac OS X
Hmmm...we use several Symbol barcode scanners with FileMaker Pro apps developed in-house, and we've never had a problem. As mentioned, the Mac sees it as a keyboard, and the output from the scanner has always worked like a charm. It will happily place the text from the scan into FMP, Word, TextEdit, text fiield forms in Firefox...anything we throw at it!

Really? Either your in-house devs know something we don't or whatever model your using works better.

We use the Symbol LS 4278 (link from where I buy them, CDW). And no, the devs don't know anything special. They asked me to find something that could scan barcodes and barf out the output into a FileMaker Pro database field. I read good things about that model, bought one to try, and we've bought several since as we do more and more projects that include barcode scanning. Edit: macosxhints.com user cliffkujala also notes below that he uses the LS 4278. Maybe that model is just super Mac friendly? We also use a wired USB model that works well too, but I don't have that model number on hand. Edited on Mar 26, '10 07:15:18PM by leamanc
