Abstract
A barcode reader for detecting a printing anomaly is described herein. The barcode reader may receive read data associated with a read operation involving a barcode reader and a barcode. The barcode reader may process, using an anomaly detection model, the read data to determine an anomaly status associated with the barcode being printed by a printer. The anomaly detection model may be trained based on reference decoding metric information associated with corresponding reference images that depict barcodes associated with one or more printing anomalies. The barcode reader may determine, based on the anomaly status, a printer status associated with the printer. The barcode reader may provide an indication of the printer status.
