3. Can data be stored and retrieved? Does it cost additional money?
Many poorly designed ID card scanners have difficult sequences of buttons to press between scans to reset the scanner. To ensure that every employee can easily use the scanner, there should be no buttons to press between scans. A good scanner should take no more than 1 to 2 seconds for the entire scanning process. If the machine is too slow, there is a high probability that it will go unused by staff members. An unused machine leaves a business at risk of citation.
Cheap ID scanners simply read an ID and display the age of the patron. More advanced scanners can store the data read from the card in built-in memory.
A business must consider the best place to check IDs before they purchase an ID checker. A business may need multiple ID scanning units to adequately cover all entrances and checkouts.

The software included with your 35mm scanner could also be an important factor in considering which scanner you end up purchasing.
