Line 4:
  Most of Opticon's scanners can be configured to transmit data as USB keyboards. Since the Linux kernel provides good support for USB keyboards, this means that Opticon's scanners work very well under Linux in this mode.    Most of Opticon's scanners can be configured to transmit data as USB keyboards.

- There are two ways that Opticon's devices can be accessed in Linux while in USB-VCP. Our 1D devices have a driver that provides good support for serial communication. As well, our 2D products use a generic CDC/ACM driver for serial communication. Since this is also well-supported in Linux, all of our products are well-supported.   + There are two ways that Opticon's devices can be accessed in Linux while in USB-VCP (Virtual COM Port) mode.

  The typical method for accessing our 1D products is to open the /dev/ttyUSB# file, where the # is a number, starting from 0 and counting up. Our 2D products are accessed through a similar device file, with the exception that since they use the CDC drivers they are accessed through /dev/ttyACM#.     The typical method for accessing our 1D products is to open the /dev/ttyUSB# file, where the # is a number, starting from 0 and counting up.
