Increase performance
with Motorola Symbol’s next-generation scanner for customers
who value productivity
With Motorola 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 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-inch 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 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
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 LS4208,
Motorola 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 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.
