The Zebra DS9908 is a premium hybrid imager built from the ground up for both handheld and hands-free use. Unlike standard scanners, the DS9900 series features a capacitive touch sensor and accelerometer that instantly switches modes the moment it’s picked up. This "AZW" kit is the high-power USB solution, providing a seamless, "rapid-fire" scanning experience for busy UK retail and pharmacy environments.
Key Features
-
True Hybrid Performance: Two scanners in one. In presentation mode, the scan range is limited to avoid accidental reads of nearby items; in handheld mode, it extends to reach items in a trolley or basket with ease.
-
Industry-Leading Speed: With an 800 MHz microprocessor and megapixel sensor, it offers "swipe" speeds of up to 610 cm per second, keeping checkout lines moving at maximum capacity.
-
Digimarc & OCR Ready: Future-proofed with support for Digimarc (invisible barcodes) and OCR for capturing data from passports, ID cards, and official documents.
-
Rugged for Retail: IP52 sealing protects against accidental spills, while the recessed scan window prevents scratches and smudging. It is built to survive drops of up to 1.5 metres.
-
High-Density Data Support: Ideal for the UK FMD (Falsified Medicines Directive), effortlessly reading the tiny, dense DataMatrix codes found on pharmaceutical packaging.
