Why does my scanner show different characters?

Check whether the reader supports Code 93 Extended and whether its Full ASCII mode is enabled. Test that the scanned result matches your input exactly, including letter case. This format does not support all languages; for multilingual text, choose QR and test it with the intended reader.

How do I check the code before printing?

Leave the white margins intact, keep the image in proportion and scan a sample at its final printed size with the device you intend to use.
