Abstract
An imaging reader for, and a method of, imaging symbols of different symbologies and a receipt acknowledgment, include a solid-state imager having an array of image sensors for capturing return light from the symbols of different symbologies and the receipt acknowledgment over a field of view, and a controller operatively connected to the imager. The controller is automatically configured for detecting a symbol having a specific symbology, for decoding the symbol having the specific symbology, for processing the receipt acknowledgment only when the symbol having the specific symbology has been detected and decoded, and for decoding symbols having symbologies different from the specific symbology when the symbol having the specific symbology has not been detected.
