But I don't think they have a standard start or stop code/char...
We ran into the same problem about a year or two ago.
Good luck in finding something that will read it 'cause we couldn't

Shawn - From info I compiled in http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts:

3590 barcode                            Is formally "Automation
Identification
                                        Manufacturers Uniform Symbol
Description
                                        Version 3", otherwise known as Code
39.
                                        It runs across the full width of the
                                        label. The two recognized vendors:
                                        Engineered Data Products (EDP)
Tri-Optic
                                        Wright Line Tri-Code
                                        Ref: Redbook "IBM Magstar Tape
Products
                                        Family: A Practical Guide", topic
                                        Cartridge Labels and Bar Codes.

I should think that those two vendors could either supply or guide you to a
supplier of such a barcode reader.
