ZEBRA DS4308-HC

IMPROVE PATIENT SAFETY AND INCREASE CAREGIVER PRODUCTIVITY WITH NEXT GENERATION
SCANNING.

Bar code scanning at patient bedside is crucial in preventing medication and specimen mixups — two of the
potentially deadliest errors in a hospital. But scanning bar codes in a hospital can be a challenge. There are many
types of bar codes including traditional paper-based, those displayed on an electronic screen, codes printed on curved
surfaces, high density codes printed On very small items and bar codes in all types of conditions — from smudged to
scratched and poorly printed. Now, you can give your healthcare workers the ability to scan them all with the ds4308­hc. This feature-rich next generation 2d imager resets the bar for scanning performance, scanning range, versatility
and ease-of-use. The result? The priceless peace of mind that the right patient received the right medication and the
right test results, every time. The ds4308-hc — the ideal companion for laptops on workstation-on-wheels (wows) and
other types of carts in your hospital.

PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology for next generation performance

Resets the bar for 2D imaging by improving decode performance and snappiness, ensuring the virtually instant
capture of bar codes required in the mission critical world of healthcare.

Megapixel sensor and advanced algorithms enable first time capture of any bar code, on any
medium — in virtually any condition

Give your healthcare workers true peace of mind with the ability to scan virtually any 1D, 2D or PDF417 bar code, as
well as the many challenging bar codes in healthcare — including the tiny dense codes wrapped around the curved
surface of a vial to bar codes that are stained or smudged.

Largest “sweet spot” for can’t-miss point-and-shoot scanning simplicity

A decode range allows healthcare workers to scan any bar code type at any density nearer and farther than any other
scanners in its class, making scanning truly second nature. And with omni-directional scanning,healthcare workers
never need to waste valuable time aligning bar code and scanner.

Withstands constant disinfecting

IP42 sealing and a specially designed disinfectant-ready plastic housing allow safe wipe-down with a wide variety of
harsh chemicals to help prevent the spread of germs.

Unsurpassed aiming technology

The crisp and bright aiming dot has the reach and brightness needed to ensure the fast capture of data.

Durable design for superior uptime

Built to survive a 6 ft./1.83 m drop to concrete, the DS4308-HC delivers reliable operation, despite the inevitable
everyday drops.

Day and night ‘do-not-disturb’ modes

Healthcare workers can choose to mix and match the decode feedback that is right for the moment: visual (green light/
red light), haptic (vibration) and an audible tone.

Superior out-of-box experience

The DS4308-HC is up and running almost instantly. Smart auto-host detect cables automatically determine which
interface is attached, eliminating the need to scan numerous configuration bar codes. Over 90 international keyboards
are hosted within the scanner for easy setup, all around the world.

Easy on the eyes

Thanks to a special LED wavelength and recessed lighting, when a bar code is scanned, the light that is emitted is
soft and unobtrusive, preventing eye fatigue and improving the environment for patients and healthcare workers.

GIVE YOUR HEALTHCARE WORKERS THE POWER TO CAPTURE
ANY BAR CODE, ON ANY MEDIUM, IN ANY CONDITION — AND
MAKE YOUR HOSPITAL A SAFER PLACE.
