Barcode Reader from Pepperl+Fuchs Now Handles USPS OneCode/Intelligent Mail Barcodes

TWINSBURG, OH - Pepperl+Fuchs introduces a new firmware release for their handheld MAH200 and MAH300 series barcode readers. The firmware features a decoder that allows these barcode readers to handle the new USPS 4-state barcode, also known as USPS OneCode Solution.

According to the United States Postal service website (USPS.gov), "The Intelligent Mail® barcode (formally known as the 4-State Customer Barcode) is the next generation of USPS® barcode technology used to sort and track letters and flats. Intelligent Mail® barcode technology, among other things, combines the capabilities of the POSTNET barcode and the Planet Code® barcode into one unique barcode."
