In addition to specifying that the scanner adds a carriage return to its scans, there are a few other items you may need to configure.
•If your USB interface has multiple possible settings, set it to HID Keyboard Emulation.
•If you are using Code 39 labels and your scanner doesn't call up stages properly or doesn't let you use IDPA barcode labels to register shooters, be sure that Code 39 Full ASCII is disabled. A simple check for this - print an IDPA number shooter label (not a score entry label). Scan it. If the leading letter is lower case, full ASCII is enabled. Use your scanner's manual to disable it.
•If you're using a SmartCable with a LS9100 series printer, be sure to scan the Enable LS 9100 Communication item in the SmartCable documentation.
Most newer scanners will work right out of the box.
