Introduction
Introduction
The Intermec 1545 series laser scanners deliver quick,
effortless bar code scanning and can read even marginal quality
bar codes almost instantly. The scanners are reliable and can
withstand demanding industrial applications. With their low
power solid state visible laser diode, the 1545s are particularly
appropriate for portable applications. A 1545 with a fully
charged reader can be used for a full day of data collection.
1545E
General purpose scanner, 670 nm light.
1545F
Has added capability of being compatible with specific third
party readers, 670 nm light.
1545G
Same as 1545E, except its 650 nm light appears brighter.
