Today's customers do not want to wait in long lines at the checkout or counter. The DS4600 series offers the versatility and powerful scanning you need to keep transactions fast and lines flowing throughout the store. This feature-rich reader helps scan items of all sizes, read barcodes in almost any condition, and process transactions of all kinds. Bulky items in the shopping cart, customer card at the checkout, mobile coupon for purchase, small barcodes in the jewelry store - the DS4600 series can handle it all. Increased efficiency reduces queues and maintains the loyalty of customers who return again and again. Our unique DataCapture DNA and industry management tools that make it easier than ever to integrate, deploy, and manage your scanners.
DS4600 Series - more versatility in data collection, greater range, and more innovations.
Switching between manual and hands-free scanning
Simply place the scanner in the optional presentation stand to automatically switch to hands-free mode; then lift the scanner for manual mode - no setting change required.
Flexible feedback modes that work in any retail environment
The DS4600 series offers several feedback modes, including a good decode LED visible from any position, a traditional beep with adjustable volume/frequency, and Zebra's direct decode indicator, which projects illumination onto the barcode for instant visual confirmation of a successful scan.
Do more with productivity-enhancing innovations
Doubles productivity as a document scanner. With a single press of the scan button, the DS4600 series can capture images of checks and utility bills, and the DS4608-SR and DS4608-DL models can scan full-page documents. Intelligent document capture Zebra automatically compensates for lighting variations and enhances the image on the other side for optimal clarity.
Capture Multiple Barcodes with a Single Press of the Scan Trigger
With Multi-Code Data Formatting (MDF), the DS4600 series can scan multiple barcodes with a single trigger pull and transmit only the barcodes you need, in the order your application expects.
One of one barcode from many
With Zebra's preferred symbol, the DS4600 series can capture and output only the preferred barcode, so workers no longer need to waste time physically covering nearby barcodes before scanning.
Deactivate EAS Tags During Scanning
Optional EAS support available on DS4608-HD / HL models allows affiliates to deactivate EAS Checkpoint tags when scanning prices, increasing checkout productivity and preventing false alarms.
Simplify Data Collection with OCR
Let intelligent technology do the work. OCR support accelerates data collection from identification cards and travel documents that may not have barcodes - speeding up transactions at checkouts in airport shops and other locations.
