image Successfully open device but unable to read input from barcode scanner

If the barcode scanner is acting like a keyboard, you cannot use HIDAPI to access it, because the OS owns keyboards.

Yeah, what happens if you scan a code via barcode scanner? Does it get to be typed like it was typed on a keyboard? (Open notepad and try scanning - if the text appears followed by the enter, you can't use hidapi because the scanner behaves like a keyboard).

Issues without updates from OP for a long time should be closed.
