4800dr Document Reader Available

Our new 4800dr offers a new take on document imaging. Instead of a flatbed page scanner, you can use the 4800dr to digitize hard-copy documents for paperless processing, storage and retrieval. It consists of an imager, stand and tray that work together to capture images of documents up to A4 in size without any adjustments. Check out the product page for more details.

2D Refresh

In late 2006, we launched the 4600r 2D scanner. It featured unparalleled functionality and scanning performance. With tens of thousands of 4600r devices now deployed to the field, we are adding this break-through performance to our complete line of 2D readers.

2D Refresh

All 4600g, 4820, 4800i and 4820i handheld 2D image scanners shipped from the Hand Held Products factory after February 19, 2008 will include this breakthrough scanning performance. The benefits of this technology are clear:

  • Best in Class Scan Performance
  • Quick and Easy Fly-By and Presentation Scanning
  • Improved readability of shiny and highly reflective codes

We’ve published the full Product Update Notice on our Partner’s Area, including a more thorough list of benefits.
