Data requirements for your inventory or track and trace application may be only a few kilobytes today, which may make a 1-D barcode seem the most logical choice. But data requirements are likely to grow along with the size and complexity of your operation. It is worthwhile to anticipate future requirements that would benefit from a 2-D code or the ability to read compromised barcodes. You may own your distribution channels today, but growth or new clients in remote locations may necessitate a third-party logistics company, leaving you no longer in control of the code-marking quality. Investing in better technology today may minimize future equipment upgrades.
Usage
The scanning environment will also indicate which type of reader you need. If your application calls for reading cartons of various sizes traveling at high speed down a conveyor, then a small fixed-mount reader will be the best choice. If the reader is the final inventory check for dock workers loading incoming materials or outgoing product, a handheld reader will be ideal. If it's a courier or technician working in the field, a mobile terminal with built-in code reading capability will help quickly scan packages or check equipment specifications.
