Most quality programmable USB barcode scanners which can operate in keyboard emulation mode will work well with BusinessMind. However, we found in our testing that the Honeywell Hyperion 1300g is the most accurate and easiest to program.
There are other higher priced barcode scanners which have a more poweful laser, however, this one is perfect for most jewelry business applications and comes in at a good price point.
