No experience of a Zebex but it looks like a configuration problem, what are you scanning, is the item barcode non-English or is the reader set to another language.

What model of scanner are you using.

You should talk to the people who created it - they should provide technical support and will know more about their product than we will. If they don't, then find another supplier and demand your money back!

Most scanners are shipped set to just provide a basic "keyboard input" - so if you are getting odd characters it's either a hardware problem, or a configuration problem. Either way we can't help; you need the people who made it.

A basic process of using Barcode: content -> encode with UTF-8 -> generate Barcode -> read Barcode -> decode with UTF-8 -> content.

If you didn't decode the result with UTF-8, you would see the unrecognized characters. If you did, maybe your system does not support non-English languages.
