Add from ISBN on the Add book arrow menu.
If the scanner is not configured for a 'newline' after each scan,you will have to supply it from the keyboard or change the scanner 'suffix' configuration.
Remember to scan only EAN codes that start with 978.
Also, you can interleave a hand keyed ISBN for books that don't have bare codes.
For those that have SAN, try inserting a zero at the start.
for those missing the check digit, I set them asside and entered check digits [0-9X] until Calibre gave the Green
