Device Manager shows all the devices that are connected to your computer. To fix a dead USB port, we need to analyze Universal Series Bus controllers and associated drivers. Open Device Manager by right-clicking on Start Device Manager. From the Device Manager, scroll down to Universal Serial Bus Controllers and expand it. If the device-specific driver is distributed through Windows Update, you can manually update the driver by using Device Manager. For more information about how to do this, see update drivers in Windows 10. If the device is not yet connected, first install the device-specific driver, such as by using the appropriate installer. Windows Printer Driver: Windows applications have the ability to utilize the E-Class printers as a Windows printer. Users can choose virtually any Windows application software to use with the E-Class. DPL: Utilizes the Datamax Programming Language. Many existing applications support DPL. 3ips, with 4ips option: Increased print speed availability. Provide a wide range of user configurability and device status indications. (M-4208 & M-4306) Front 5 button 2 line, 20 character LCD display. Configure the printer and change how the printer operates. All configurations take place via the intuitive front menu. No complicated dipswitches. Cantilever printhead mechanism.

Barcode Scanner
| Connectivity | Support |
|---|---|
| USB | Windows contains an in-box class driver for USB connected barcode scanners which is based on the HID POS Scanner Usage Table (8c) specification defined by USB.org. See the table below for a list of known compatible devices. Consult the manual for your barcode scanner or contact the manufacturer to determine how to configure your scanner in USB.HID.POS Scanner mode. Windows also supports implementation of vendor specific drivers to support additional barcode scanners that do not support the USB.HID.POS Scanner standard. Please check with your barcode scanner manufacturer for vendor specific driver availability. Barcode scanner manufacturers please consult the Barcode Scanner Driver Design Guide for information on creating a custom barcode scanner driver |
| Bluetooth | Windows supports Serial Port Protocol - Simple Serial Interface (SPP-SSI) based Bluetooth barcode scanners. See the table below for a list of known compatible devices. Consult the manual for your barcode scanner or contact the manufacturer to determine how to configure your scanner in SPP-SSI mode. |
| Webcam | Starting with Windows 10, version 1803, you can read barcodes through a standard camera lens from a Universal Windows Application. It is recommended that you use a camera that supports Auto Focus and a minimum resolution of 1920 x 1440. Some lower resolution cameras can read standard barcodes if the barcode is printed large enough. Barcodes with thinner elements may require higher resolution cameras. |
