Affordability and Simplicity Delivered

2D barcodes now appear throughout the point-of-sale environment, on everything from the products customers purchase to printed and electronic coupons and loyalty cards. A 1D-only scanner cannot capture these codes, creating exceptions that slow checkout and frustrate customers at a critical service moment. The Zebra DS2208 provides an affordable path to corded 1D/2D imaging without sacrificing essential performance or features.

Workers get first-time, every-time scanning with familiar point-and-shoot simplicity, even when barcodes are poorly printed or displayed on a screen. The DS2208 is preconfigured for common applications, straightforward to deploy and manage, and automatically switches between triggered handheld scanning and hands-free presentation scanning when placed in an optional IntelliStand.

Watch the POSGuys team demonstrate the DS2208 on 1D and 2D barcodes, mobile screens and challenging retail labels.
