Hello, when an item is scanned does it make any type of noise like a beep?

It depends on the volume and device you're using. What device will the scanner be connected to @aplusvac?

The Square Register does NOT support BLUETOOTH barcode scanners....isn't that crazy?? It ONLY supports USB scanners. So unfortunately, if you have a Bluetooth barcode scanner from your previous POS hardware set up, its no longer a viable option. You have to purchase the one and only USB scanner that is compatible with the register. Does Square explain this in the Square Register description?? Of course not! It doesn't at any point mention that there is only one compatible scanner and it never explicitly says its not bluetooth compatible. So so so disappointed with the new hardware rollout and the complete disregard to communicating to previous customers on the **actual requirements to update our equipment.
