Hi,

We're struggling with our bar code scanning rate for Baxter's "Mini-bag Plus" containers. The bags have a white bar code, and our scanners won't read them if there is fluid behind the bar code or if there is a white label on the other side of the bag.

The only way that we can get the bar code to scan is if we squeeze the bag so that there is air behind the bar code AND also angle the scanner so that the flat water surface is below and serves as the background.

Can anyone share their experience with Baxter IV pumps?
We currently have Alaris and are interested in Baxter's Spectrum IQ pump.

I appreciate any information you can share,
