Print Automatically After Handheld Scan

Can Bartender be set to print automatically after handheld scan reads data into the text object at the prompt window? (without user having to press Print button for each label). Or can we program it to print automatically after each scan (how to do it?)

  Hi, Kiat:
  
  In Bartender, File-> Print-> Options tab-> tick "Automatically print again" , you can print automatically after handheld scan reads data into the text object at the prompt window
  but you need to push "Print" button on the print prompt view.
  
  
  To achieve no need to push "Print" button, you might need to look for Windows Automation program(Automate by sending keystrokes and mouse clicks) to detect the scanned data and do the "Push" button actions in Baretender for you automatically.
  
  
  Thanks!

  Normally you can configure your barcode reader to append a carriage return suffix to the scanned data; therefore activating the "Print" button. In the properties of you text input form control, you will need to make sure the "Treat enter key as a tab" check box is un-ticked.
