[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] ***SPAM*** Re: portable barcode scanners for inventory

[Heidi J. Oliversen]

Hello Gordana:

did you ever get a resolution for this problem?  I am trying to help a 
library staff person remotely so I don't have a unit in my hands. Was it 
a Setup issue?  Any information would be useful.

Thank you,
