PecuMecu TM-10C Handheld Barcode Scanner, Wired USB, 1D and 2D
Product description
Some checkout and inventory tasks involve familiar retail barcodes, others rely on QR codes and digital passes. The PecuMecu TM-10C reads both 1D and 2D formats, helping keep those workflows on one handheld scanner.
Its wired USB connection is designed for straightforward setup: connect it to a compatible device without installing a driver or software. That makes it practical for a checkout station, stockroom or desk where the scanner can stay connected.
It can also read codes displayed on a cell phone screen, including mobile coupons, digital wallet codes and loyalty cards. For screen scanning, set the phone brightness to maximum before scanning.

Everyday use
At a point of sale, the TM-10C can handle standard retail codes as well as QR codes, so checkout tasks involving different barcode formats can be managed with the same scanner. In a warehouse or back room, it can support inventory tracking and file management, in a library, bookstore or drugstore, it can assist with scanning and organizing items.
The ability to read codes from a phone screen is useful when a customer presents a digital coupon, wallet code or loyalty card instead of a printed one. For a workstation, the USB connection keeps the scanner wired to the device, while support for desktop computers, laptops, smartphones and tablets gives it flexibility across different setups. It also works with common software, including Word and Excel.
Practical tips
Connect the scanner through USB to a compatible device to get started, driver or software installation is not required. When scanning a coupon or other code from a cell phone screen, raise the screen brightness to maximum first. This small step supports screen reading in everyday checkout situations.
The ABS body has an ergonomic design and is specified to withstand repeated drops from 5 ft/1.5 m onto concrete. That makes its construction relevant for busy retail counters and stock areas where a handheld scanner may be used throughout the workday.
