CHAPTER 1 GETTING STARTED
Introduction
2D bar codes have made their way to the Point of Sale (POS), appearing on everything from customer purchased
items to printed and electronic coupons and loyalty cards. 1D scanners cannot capture the new 2D codes, leading
to exceptions that slow down the check-out process. The DS2208 digital imager scanner scans both 1D and 2D
bar codes and does not compromise performance or features.
The DS2208 is easy to deploy, easy to use, and easy to manage - delivering affordable simplicity with its
hands-free/hand-held design. The scanner’s Intellistand seamlessly accommodates both counter top and
hand-held use.
