Scanner 
Increase performance
with Symbol's next-generation scanner for customers who value
productivity
With Symbol's LS4208 handheld laser bar code scanner, you're able to
effortlessly speed throughput, even with bar codes in poor condition.
Wherever you need to quickly capture and process data- such as at the
retail checkout counter, in pharmacies and hospitals, and in light
warehouse environments - this ergonomically designed scanner helps you
increase accuracy, improve productivity, cut maintenance costs and
reduce the risk of downtime.
Benefit from
innovative features never before delivered by a single scanner
The Symbol LS4208 delivers intuitive, productivity-enhancing
functionality that allows even your novice users to speed checkout lines
and increase customer satisfaction rates at the retail point of sale, or
quickly capture data in light warehouses and medical facilities. Its
innovative multi-line rastering scan pattern virtually eliminates the
need for end-user training, and lets you scan all types of
one-dimensional (1D) bar codes, including damaged symbols or stacked
reduced space symbology (RSS) bar codes. In addition, the scanner's 19"
scanning range and superior motion tolerance gives users greater
flexibility to rapidly and accurately capture data from a variety of
items without pausing between scans, while recently added faster
scanning and decoding capabilities mean employees are able to process
more items more rapidly and spend less time keying in data.
Minimize your chances
of downtime
Designed for constant, rigorous use in retail, office and light
industrial settings, the Symbol LS4208 provides you with reliability
you'll be able to depend on. Along with a 6-foot drop spec that allows
the scanner to keep on running even after dropped repeatedly to
concrete, the Symbol LS4208 also offers single circuit-board
construction. By eliminating the failure points commonly found with
interconnect ribbon cables, this unique design feature helps to lower
your total cost of ownership.
Future-proof your
investment
With the Symbol LS4208, Symbol has not only created a scanner able
to provide you with next-generation technology today, but also will meet
your needs even as they change. The scanner's multi-interface and
universal cables let you connect it to a variety of hosts, allowing you
to easily update your systems. And since the Symbol LS4208 is designed
for the newest and emerging 1D symbologies such as RSS bar codes, you'll
be able to continue using the same device for all your scanning
requirements, even as your requirements change.
