2D Refresh

Barry Adams — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 13:47:12 +0000

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.

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:
