Does the scanner's ability to transfer data to the application depend on the barcode type?

Edited: Question Title 7/5/2017

I've recently learned how to embed a data matrix code with TAB and ENTER keys however the host doesn't seem to be able to keep up with the scan after about 3 fields of data.

I've tried the usb keystroke delay and that helps a little. I'm now wondering if there's a better code than data matrix that I might use such as code 39 or something. Or is there something besides keystroke delay that may help the host catch up with the scanner's ability?

Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to give.

Ben	Best Answer When you say host, are you referring to the Hosted Dynamic Barcode Generator Service's Free Creator? Is your question specific to the host (Hosted Service) speed or the scanner's ability to transfer data from the barcode to the application? The speed at which the barcode transmits data depends on the scanner, not the barcode type. Dynamic Barcode Generator Service Performance Posted 7.3 year(s) ago (0) (0) Report Abuse

Mine was referring to either the scanner's ability to transfer data or the application/software's ability to process the information from the scanner (I don't know which is the problem). Ok so I think you answered my question then - the barcode type doesn't matter. Maybe I'd want to talk to zebra scanner support to see what I can do. thanks!!!

No, I must have phrased the question wrong. Either that or your answer is just way above my head. I'm very new at this. I apologize.

I'm just using the Free Data Matrix ECC200 Image Creator. I'm using a zebra scanner connected via usb to scan the image on pharmacy software.
