How to Log Barcode Scanner Output?

Is there a way to log a barcode scanner's output?



We have an issue with our barcode scanner.
I can't explain it well so I will just leave a picture here:

Unfortunately, this issue happens intermittently and the scanner does have carriage return set after every input (so that it can automatically jump to the next text box field).



We have 2 hypothesis for this issue:
1) Bug in the form
2) User scans faster than the PC can have time to process the carriage return



Are there anyway to have a script/service that log the output of the scanner into a txt file and at the same time enable the user to use the form normally?

          It is likely that "2) User scans faster than the PC can have time to process the carriage return".



          Using the setting barcode, adjust the barcode reading interval called "Good Read Delay" or "Reread Delay" etc. to a longer interval.
