Yes i searched in the repo but no response

I had this same issue before and iirc, I seen several closed issues about this issue for android. I think you need to add some property inside of the method or you need to use another method the plugin provides. Don’t remember much.

In that case, there can be an issue with your old scanner you are using. I also faced similar issue when I was using brother brand and then I shifted to Munbyn Android Scanner and the issue got resolved.
