COMPREHENSIVE ADVANCED DATA CAPTURE SUPPORTS A WORLD OF APPLICATIONS
The DS6878-SR cordless imager offers the complete data capture functionality required to streamline and error-proof
everyday processes in a wide variety of industries. This single device can capture all common bar codes (1-D, 2-D
and PDF417) on labels as well as on mobile phone displays. The optional hands-free presentation cradle enables
additional advanced capabilities, including: the ability to capture signatures, documents and photographs; optical
character recognition (OCR) to capture the text in documents; and MICR to capture the numeric information on the
bottom of checks. Electronic recordkeeping is enriched and checks can be instantly converted to electronic debit
transactions, reducing the time and cost associated with processing paper checks as well as the risk of check fraud.
Add easy remote management, business-class durability, future proofing and world-class support and you have a
scanner that not only offers the advanced data capture features your users need, but also the extraordinary total cost
of ownership (TCO) required to easily justify this technology investment.
REVOLUTIONARY SCANNING PERFORMANCE IMPROVES PRODUCTIVITY AND TRANSACTION
SPEED
Built on the revolutionary SE4500 scan engine, the DS6878-SR breaks the barriers that have long separated 1-D
laser scanning and 2-D imaging technologies, delivering an industry first ' 1-D laser scanning performance on 2-D bar
codes. Businesses no longer need to sacrifice speed and scanning quality for bar code scanning diversity.
Exceptional motion tolerance enables extraordinary scanning speed on all bar codes. The scanner can capture even
poor quality and damaged bar codes, virtually eliminating exceptions. The easy to use device offers an intuitive aiming
pattern and full omni-directional scanning, which eliminates the need to precisely align bar code and imager. And the
patent-pending fast-pulse illumination consistently delivers the light required to capture the bar code, enabling use in
virtually any type of lighting. The result is increased throughput ' and productivity.
GET CORDLESS FREEDOM AND MORE
The ability to roam up to 300 ft./100 m away from a host device offers cable-free convenience, improving safety and
allowing the extension of advanced data capture in more applications and industries. The latest Bluetooth®
technology ' V2.1 with EDR ' improves security and power management, offering superior protection for the wireless
data traveling between scanner and host and helping to ensure ample power for full shift use.
BUSINESS-CLASS DURABILITY
The DS6878-SR is built to survive everyday all day use in enterprise environments. The device offers the best-in-class
drop specification ' 6 ft./1.8 m drops to concrete. The result is dependable operation, despite the inevitable everyday
drops and bumps.
PROTECT YOUR DATA WITH GOVERNMENT GRADE SECURITY
Native FIPS 140-2 Level 1 certification (optional) brings government grade security to businesses and government
agencies alike, providing easy and cost-effective compliance with HIPAA, PCI and other industry security regulations.
