Getting started with the LS 2208 is fast and simple with 123Scan setup utility. This easy-to-use tool reduces startup time and costs wherever the scanner is used. Additionally, the scan element in the LS2208 is based on a liquid injection process that delivers integral shock protection, providing durability that can be counted on. These powerful features reduce downtime and keep maintenance costs to a minimum. The symbol LS2208 barcode reader is engineered for nonstop, daily heavy usage and has been tested to withstand multiple 5′ drops to concrete.

Our technical staff found this scanner very easy to operate was surprisingly pleased with its light weight. In terms of laser-focusing ability and performance, it easily outperformed other CCD scanners priced below $200. The laser scanning beam on the Symbol LS2208 barcode scanner is very small and bright, which makes it easy to scan small barcodes. This scanner dependably and easily read Code 39 barcode font printed at 6 points and Code 128 barcode font printed at 8 points. Overall, this is the best laser barcode scanner at this price.
