Handheld Scanners

Premium

LS4208
The LS4208 scanner is Symbol's premiere general-purpose laser scanner, offering a unique array of features that deliver superb scanning performance with minimal user effort. With an innovative multi-line rastering scan pattern, superior motion tolerance and a wide working range, the LS4208 delivers robust scanning that eliminates the need to precisely aim and position the device, or pause between scans. And even the smallest, stacked, damaged and poorly printed bar codes are quickly and accurately captured on the first scan, resulting in maximum productivity. Combined with a patented single board construction that eliminates one of the most common points of failure, the LS4208 delivers reliable day-to-day performance - and a low total cost of ownership.

LS4278
The LS4278 offers the same superb scanning performance and unique features as the LS4208 along with cordless BluetoothT freedom and the security features needed to help ensure protection of your wirelessly transmitted data. The ability to move throughout the workspace enables cashiers to step out from behind the register to scan items, allow healthcare workers to scan patient wristbands to verify medication orders, and more. Productivity is improved and revenue is enhanced. As for durability, the LS4278 offers a patented single board construction, a cradle with industrial charging contacts that ensure reliable performance through hundreds of thousands of insertions, and drain points to protect sensitive electronics in the event of spills. (Workspace size: within a 30 to 50 foot/9.1 to 15.2 m radius)

DS6607
The flexible DS6607 enables the collection and transfer of a wide variety of data - from 1D and 2D bar codes to signatures and images. This single device is designed to meet all your data capture needs - from cashiers in pharmacies taking images of prescriptions to dock workers recording incoming shipments and clerks scanning customer loyalty cards. With its unique laser-generated aiming pattern, the omni-directional DS6607 accurately captures bar codes - regardless of scanner angle or position. And information is rapidly captured and processed using a charge coupled device (CCD) image sensor similar to those found in high-end digital cameras.

DS6608
The DS6608 enables companies to deploy one device throughout the enterprise that is capable of scanning any bar code -1D and 2D. The easy-to-use scanner requires virtually no training - the omni-directional scanning capability and unique aiming pattern enable accurate capture of any bar code without requiring users to hold the scanner at a certain angle or position. And with a charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensor similar to those found in high-end digital cameras, you can count on laser-like scanning speed and accuracy.

The result is faster checkout, increased customer satisfaction, increased employee productivity - and a rapid return on investment.

Hands Free Scanners

LS7708
The LS7708 is ideal for medium to high-volume scanning environments, such as grocery, drug and convenience stores. This flexible on-counter scanner enables both presentation and swipe scanning to keep the register lines moving, even in the busiest retail environments. Robust scanning technology, including a dense rastering omni-directional scan pattern, delivers higher first-pass read rates without requiring cashiers to precisely position bar codes. And the 'smart' scanner moves into sleep mode when not in use, automatically 'waking up' when a bar code is passed over the scan window, reducing power demands and extending the life of your scanner.

M2000
This combination hands-free/handheld scanner enables scanning of any size item, providing maximum flexibility. Four user-selectable scan patterns deliver outstanding scanning performance, enabling the fast and accurate capture of 1D and PDF-417 bar codes, including those that are truncated, damaged and poorly printed. The intuitive and easy-to-use M2000 automatically shifts from hands-free to handheld mode when lifted and adjusts the scan pattern as needed.

LS9208
This hands-free scanner offers a high-performance processor and an innovative 100-line rastering omni-directional scan pattern that enables rapid bar code scanning regardless of the orientation of the product. It also offers the flexibility to switch quickly and easily between hands-free and handheld mode, reducing the need to lift heavy objects and the risk of injury. Combined with a small footprint that fits easily into the tightest environments and the ability to easily switch to single line mode to read pick lists and bar code menus, the LS9208 keeps checkout lines moving and customers satisfied.
