DS8100 Series Handheld Imagers

THE ULTIMATE IN PERFORMANCE, INNOVATION AND MANAGEABILITY

As a retailer, you know the checkout experience is crucial — it’s the last chance to leave your shoppers with a good impression.
The quality of the checkout experience is heavily dependent upon the performance of the scanner you choose. If cashiers need
to scan barcodes multiple times or enter unreadable barcodes manually, your checkout lanes can back up quickly, translating
into long lines and long wait times. Cashiers are then forced to focus on ringing up merchandise instead of providing shoppers
with a great in-store experience. Now, give every shopper the ultimate last impression with the DS8100 Series handheld imager,
only from Zebra. The DS8100 Series rises above the conventional imagers to deliver unprecedented scanning performance on
1D and 2D barcodes, innovative productivity enhancing tools and unrivaled manageability to keep your checkout lines moving
and your cashiers free to deliver a more personal checkout experience. The DS8100 Series — because when it comes to the
checkout experience, only the best will do.

UNPRECEDENTED PERFORMANCE

Unparalleled Performance on Virtually
Every Barcode in Any Condition

Only the DS8100 Series combines the
power of an 800 MHz microprocessor, a
high-resolution megapixel sensor and
Zebra’s exclusive PRZM technology. With
this unique combination of hardware and
advanced algorithms, the DS8100 Series
instantly captures the most problematic
barcodes — including dense, poorly
printed, crinkled, faded, distorted, dirty or
damaged, as well as electronic barcodes
on dimly lit displays.

Superior Scan Range

A scanning range up to 24 in./61 cm,
a high resolution imaging sensor and a
bright “aiming spot” improve checkout
speed. Now, cashiers in busy checkout
environments can easily scan items in
a customer’s shopping car t — without
leaving the cash-wrap.

Power to Scan Continuously
for 24 Hours

No matter how busy your store is, with
Zebra’s exclusive PowerPrecision+ smart
battery in the cordless DS8178, your
workers will always have the power they
need for the busiest shift. Your devices are
always available — no need for charging
during the business day.

INNOVATION BEYOND THE BARCODE

PRZM Intelligent Imaging

Only from Zebra, PRZM features reset
the bar for imaging performance. Poor
images are turned into instantly useful
images for faster decoding. PRZM then
handles some of the processing typically
handled in the decoder to reduce power
usage, improve battery cycle times and
further increase decoding speed.

Support for the Barcode of
the Future — Digimarc®*

The DS8100 Series supports Digimarc
digital watermark technology, which
enables a barcode to be printed
repeatedly over all surfaces of a product
like wallpaper — yet remain completely
invisible to the naked eye. Cashiers no
longer need to locate and position a
barcode in the field of view of the imager,
enabling faster checkout and easier
self-checkout.

Capture Multiple Barcodes with
One Press of the Scan Trigger

Multi-code Data Formatting (MDF)
provides the ability to capture multiple
barcodes and transmit only those
required in the precise order the
application requires.

Exclusive Battery Charge Gauge

No more guess work on the status of a battery at the start
of a shift. The DS8178 is the only scanner in its class that
makes it easy to see at a glance whether a battery needs
to be replaced before the scanner is placed into service.

Eliminate Bluetooth Interference with
Zebra’s Proprietary Wi-Fi Friendly Mode

Ensure that your DS8178 Bluetooth scanners only
operate on channels that are not shared with your
wireless LAN (WL AN), protecting WLAN service levels
for your workers and your customers.

Instantly Capture Full Page Documents

The DS8100 Series is the only device in its class that
can capture a full page document. With a single press of
the scan trigger, Zebra’s Intelligent Document Capture
and the high-resolution 1280 x 960 camera work
together to capture a high-resolution image of a full page

8.5 x 11 or A4 document, and transmit the data in the right
format for electronic storage — eliminating the cost and
space requirements for a document scanner.

Capture Drivers License Data
(DL version required)

With one press of the scan trigger, cashiers can capture
and parse data on drivers licenses to automatically
populate a loyalt y or credit card application, verify age
for age-restricted purchases and more.

Direct Decode Indicator Improves Productivity

Since the illumination on the barcode flashes to indicate
a good decode, workers never need to pause to make
sure a barcode was captured correctly.

UNRIVALED MANAGEABILITY

Visionary Visibility into Scanning and Battery
Performance Metrics — only from Zebra

With detailed scanning performance metrics that include
speed and type of barcode for every barcode scanned,
it’s easy to spot and correct barcode issues before

they impact worker productivity and the quality of
customer service. And with a wealth of batter y health
information, including charge cycles consumed, a
State-of-Health meter and full charge capacity, you can
easily spot and replace aging batteries before they can
no longer last a full shift. Armed with this information,
you can order and install new batteries before battery
failures interrupt front end operations and cause
checkout delays.

Control Your Scanners from a
Smartphone, Tablet or PC

With this easy-to-use application, you can: control
your imager’s beeper, vibration and LED to set user
alerts; display scanned barcode data; access model
and serial number; and access battery statistics and
more from Android, iOS and Windows smartphones,
tablets and PCs.

Easily Manage All of Your Scanners
with Powerful Complimentary Tools

With 123Scan, you can easily create configuration
barcodes to program scanners. If your imagers are in
multiple locations across the country or around the
world, with Scanner Management Service (SMS), you
can configure and update the firmware for any DS8100
Series device that is plugged into the host — no depot
staging or user action is required — such as the
scanning of a configuration barcode.

Easy Application Development

Get everything you need to easily integrate scanning into
your business applications with our Scanner Software
Development Kits (SDKs) for Windows, Android, iOS and
Linux. These SDKs provide documentation, drivers, test
utilities and sample source code.
