Designed to increase efficiencies in scan-intensive operations, the revolutionary Zebra LS4208 laser handheld scanner resets the standard in high-performance scanning for customers seeking increased productivity, ease of use and lower total-cost-of-ownership. Potential end-users include retailers needing a durable, reliable and feature-rich scanner for point of sale and back-end operations; healthcare customers seeking a reliable bar code capture tool for bedside and patient management; and warehouse workers responsible for shipping and receiving products in an efficient manner.
The new Zebra (formerly Motorola) LS4208 Hand Held Laser Scanner delivers intuitive, productivity-enhancing functionality to allow novice and advanced users to speed checkout lines and increase customer satisfaction rates at the retail point of sale, or quickly capture data in warehouse and medical facilities. Specifically, its unique multi-line scan pattern allows customers to quickly and accurately scan one-dimensional (1D) bar codes including those that are damaged, small or poorly printed to help improve operational efficiencies and customer checkout. The LS4208 scanner also offers a 19-inch scanning range and improved motion tolerances to provide users with greater flexibility to rapidly and accurately capture data from a variety of items without pausing between scans.
“The new Zebra (formerly Motorola) LS4208 Hand Held Laser Scanner is designed for customers that are focused on throughput and realize that even small increases in productivity can make a significant impact on their bottom line,” said Bob Sanders, vice president and general manager of Symbol’s advanced data capture division. “The LS4208 laser scanner compliments Symbol’s expansive line of handheld scanners with a feature-rich option to meet the needs of our diverse customer base.”
The Zebra LS4208 handheld scanner reduces total-cost-of-ownership by enabling remote, network-based device management to lower IT expenses and enable customization in large, multi-scanner environments. For added flexibility, LS4208 users can easily switch between hands-free and handheld mode enabling store associates to efficiently scan hard-to-reach bar codes, such as those on large or bulky items that cannot be lifted to counter level. Along with six-foot drop specifications that allow the scanner to keep on running even after drops, the LS4208 also offers single circuit-board construction and eliminates the failure points commonly found with interconnect ribbon cables.
