Abstract
An optoelectronic code reader for reading optical codes has at least one light reception element for generating image data from received light and a control and evaluation unit that is configured to segment the image data to locate regions of interest having assumed optical codes, and to further process the regions of interest by a decoding process to read the code content of an optical code in the region of interest. The control and evaluation unit is further configured to recognize a label in the image data and to process a region of interest differently by the decoding process when the region of interest is part of a label than when the region of interest is not part of a label.
