Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 6:
7. A system comprising:
a barcode reader;
a printer; and
a controller configured to:
cause the barcode reader to perform a read operation associated with reading a barcode;
receive, from the barcode reader, read data associated with the read operation,
wherein the read data includes decoding metric information associated with decoding the barcode based on one or more images captured in association with the read operation;

process, using an anomaly detection model, the read data to determine an anomaly status associated with the barcode being printed by a printer,
wherein the anomaly detection model is trained based on reference decoding metric information associated with reference images that depict barcodes, and
wherein the anomaly detection model is configured to indicate a printer status associated with the printer based on the anomaly status; and

provide an indication associated with the printer status;
wherein the decoding metric information indicates at least one of:
a quantity of images that were captured to successfully decode the barcode,
a quantity of images that were captured that did not result in a successful decode of the barcode,
an autotuning technique that was used to modify an image used in a decoding operation that successfully decoded the barcode,
an autotuning technique associated with one or more decoding operations that were not successful in decoding the barcode,
a setting of a camera, of the barcode reader, used to capture an image used in a decoding operation that successfully decoded the barcode, or
a setting of a camera, of the barcode reader, used to capture an image used in one or more decoding operations that were not successful in decoding the barcode.
