Zebra DS8178-SR Cordless Handheld Barcode Scanner with Standard Cradle USB Kit

The Zebra DS8178-SR Cordless Handheld Scanner combines the power of an 800 MHz microprocessor, a high-resolution megapixel sensor, and Zebra’s exclusive PRZM technology. With this unique combination of hardware and advanced algorithms, the DS8178-SR scanner instantly captures the most problematic barcodes with lightning speed, including dense, poorly printed, crinkled, faded, distorted, dirty or damaged barcodes and electronic barcodes on smartphones — even when the screen is dimly lit. The DS8177-SR offers a choice of interchangeable power options. The PowerPrecision+ battery gives you more than three around-the-clock days of continuous scanning, plus a wealth of metrics for better battery management. The PowerCap capacitor is the largest capacitor in its category, providing 2,000 scans on a full charge and 100 scans after as little as 35 seconds in the cradle. The DS8178-SR is loaded with productivity-enhancing features such as the ability to capture Digimarc barcodes; capture multiple barcodes with a single pull of the trigger; single out one barcode in a group of many; and capture and optimize images of documents. Equipped with Zebra’s unique ScanSpeed Analytics, this scanner stores the image of the slowest barcode for a given symbology, making it easy to spot and correct barcode issues to optimize productivity across your operations.

Note: The DS8178-SR Scanner is unavailable with UHF RFID technology. This scanner reads 1D and 2D barcodes, but does not have UHF capabilities.
