Barcode Scanner Setup
Our company is trying to setup scan to print with a barcode scanner and I have been unable to find a tutorial on this in Bartender support. We normally work from Excel documents within Bartender and just need to be able to scan a QR code, and have a tag with the information needed print automatically through Bartender and our TSC TTP-247 printer. We will need to set it up within Bartender to automatically and immediately print a tag after scanning the QR code associated with each tag, one at a time.
I'm not the best with setup, so any link to an easy to follow tutorial or instructions would be appreciated. Thanks!

So just a bit confused, what you are looking to do is scan a QR code and the replicate the data in the code onto a new label and not perform an Excel lookup, is that correct?
If so the simplest way would be to add an Input box to a Data Entry form and link that to your label field, ticking the barcode scanner button as shown below:
On the File>Print screen and the Options tab also enable the Repeat Data Entry until cancelled button to return the user to the scan screen after each label is printed.
I haven't got a scanner to test with and so the users may need to press the print/enter button to send the print command or else you may need to add some extra suffix characters in your scanner setup to transmit the data then a tab then a an Enter (or something like that). Perhaps scanning the code twice may achieve this too but I am not sure
