please look at the the picture below, none of our barcode scanners work. Does anyone know what type of barcode is that? Thanks

I am sorry if it is off topic, I don't know where to ask.

Hi, welcome to TSF

I used to repair hand-held scanners, the kind used in stores, and whenever they failed to read barcodes we just recalibrated them by scanning the appropriate sheet of pre-programmed codes.

Are these green barcode labels new, and have they ever worked? Do your scanners work on white labels?
