Can it still read the barcode?

Can it still read the barcode?
I printed out a shipping label through PayPal. I was taping it to my package when I realized I accidentally taped over the barcode. So I took the tape off. On the tape there was a copy of the label on it. I don’t know if that means the barcode scanner for UPS won’t be able to scan it or not. It’s too late for me to reprint it. You can still see the barcode fine, but I don’t know if the scanner will pick it up. Help?!?!

Best answer:

Usually the darker it is the easier it is to pick up for the scanner. Next time leave the tape on it. The scanner can read right through the tape. But do try not to obscure the bar code or address, as reflections off of the tape might hinder scanning.
