With this problem there are 2 things that I think you need to do. 1. USB devices usually require drivers, it is unlikely that these came with windows, you need to check that your device is correctly installed and any software required to run it is installed. 2. check the configuration of the scanner, (as it will appear to work even if it is configured incorrectly. you should have a code book which you can program all of the options, as the scanner may not even know that it is connected via usb. (all the scanner knows is that it has power)

Hello I have trouble with laser ls2208 it is PS2 connection but i have only USB on PC so i buy converter ps2 to usb but after connected scanner read product but not send text to pc .

You can try scanning the Keyboard Wedge host type barcode IBM AT Notebook then rebooting your PC. If this does not work you should order a CBA-U01-S07ZAR. This is the USB cable for use with the LS2208. Zebra Technologies support solution ADC-00217 addresses this type of issue. The article was written for connecting to a laptop, but your connection is similar if you do not have a keyboard attached to the cable. This link will take you to the solution which includes the IBM AT Notebook barcode. portal motorolasolutions com Print the article and scan the barcode then reboot your PC.

I Have a new symbol scanner LS1902T-1000, whose software/Driver got missing, when i tried to read the bar codes, the unit beeps and a green light come on but I do not see any thing in the screen Please...

Hello Sabrina,
it depends much on the connection between the scanner and computer. The good sign is that the scanner is set correctly to scan the barcode. You need also scan the correct barcode for the connection art. Please scan from the Product Reference Guide the Barcode for USB, RS232 or Keyboard Wedge.
The Product Reference Guide is located at http://support.symbol.com/support/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=5880807apdf

Symbol HotShot LS2106 sounds like it's scanning, but no display

If you are using a USB to PS/2 converter on the end of the USB cable then it won't work. You will need to get a PS/2 cable made for this scanner. I can supply you with one if you need it.

Symbol HotShot LS2106 sounds like it's scanning, however, no data/information is displayed once scanned. Connecting to Windows XP with a USB converted to PS2 cable. Are there reset bar codes available that...

The LS2106 did not support laptop mode so the PS/2 wedge needs to have a PS/2 keyboard attached to the cable. If that does not work I would suggest trying to find a 25-31617-01 Synapse adapter cable and STI85-0200 USB Synapse cable. This would allow you to connect the scanner right to the USB port and it should work without any extra programming. I believe the cost of the two cables (if you have to purchase them new) is almost as much as a new LS1203 scanner with USB cable. At least with the new scanner you would get a three year warranty.

Hello,
it depends on the configuration of your host and scanner. Usually there it works like this:
Connect the scanner to USB or per Keyboard Wedge Select the correct language set for your Scanner Try to scan your barcode if this will not work - enable the barcode you need to scan with the programming barcode from Manual
The Barcodes needed to set up the device are listed in the Reference Guide at http://support.symbol.com/support/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=5093002apdf
