Service Information
If an equipment problem occurs, contact the appropriate regional Symbol Support Center for contact
information. Before calling, have the model number, serial number and several bar code symbols at hand.
Call the Support Center from a phone near the scanning equipment so that the service person can try to talk
through the problem. If the equipment is found to be working properly and the problem is symbol readability,
the Support Center will request samples of bar codes for analysis at our plant.
If the problem cannot be solved over the phone, the equipment may need to be returned for servicing. If that is
necessary, specific directions will be provided.
NOTE Symbol Technologies is not responsible for any damages incurred during shipment if the approved
shipping container is not used. Shipping the units improperly can possibly void the warranty.
