ZEBRA DS2208-Series SR Corded Handheld Standard Range Imager Kit with Stand and Shielded

Overview

Zebra builds this corded handheld imager to read printed and on-screen barcodes at a counter, with a stand and shielded USB cable in the kit. A blinking laser line, beep tone or red and green LED confirms each capture.

Reading coupons and loyalty cards shown on a phone is the practical advantage over a 1D laser unit. A universal cable connects to most computing setups with little training. Range is standard, so scanning across a room or from a distance is outside its job.

Who it's for

Shop owners and front desk staff handling printed items and phone offers will use the stand and handheld modes. The balanced lightweight body suits long shifts. Warehouse workers scanning from far away need a long-range model, and the cordless sister model suits roaming staff.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

An area imager photographs the code instead of sweeping a laser across it, which is why two dimensional and on-screen codes decode. A patented single board build and a stringent drop and tumble specification target daily counter abuse. Feedback is set by choosing the beep, LED or laser line indicator.
