When a customer is ready to checkout at a store, they will bring their items to the ECR (Electronic Cash Register) or PC. When the cashier scans the item, the scanner will send the barcode information to the ECR or PC and then that device interprets the various digits of the barcode to represent certain data fields. Of course, the definition of these data fields or "formats" should be in agreement between (A) the ECR/PC and (B) the scale/printer that generated them. Depending on the flexibility of either system, there will be a limited number of formats that both devices can understand. Keep in mind that the formats MUST coincide in order for the ECR/PC to read them correctly; otherwise, two items of the same type but that weigh differently (e.g. two packages of ground beef) will be interpreted by the ECR/PC as two different items where one might be recognized by the ECR/PC and the other may not.
i don't know :) but i hope i will cause i'm searchin for the answer if someone knew it plz send it to my email:mhammadzreik@hotmail.com and i'll be happy :)

Most bar code scanners will give you the price of an item , but if you are shopping and find one that does not , the price will come up at the checkout when you plug the scanner in .
Yes and No Yes if the store have entered the code into its computer. However, You can not get the price just from the code itself.
price
Because a bar code lasts for years, and prices vary. Because a bar code crosses borders, and currencies differ
No you can not because they do not have a price tag, or a bar code.
A data matrix bar code is used on almost very product which is found in stores. The data matrix bar code is used to identify a product and find the price in a computer system.
The bar code reader is used to read printed bar codes. It allows an attached computer to identify a product or item on which a bar code it printed and, most importantly, price that item to automate and speed checkout in a store or market.
The bar codes are programmed into the cash registers to easily price an item. All bar codes are different, and have a unique code to determine which product it is!
Everything the store sells - is stored on a computer - along with the price. The bar-code on the item is unique - in that (for example) all identically-sized tins of carrots from the same supplier have the same bar-code. When the tin is scanned, the computer interprets the bar-code and adds the item to your bill. It also prints the item price.
