Q1: What types of barcodes can the Zebra DS8178-SR scan?
The DS8178 can capture virtually every 1D and 2D barcode, including dense, poorly printed, crinkled, faded, distorted, dirty, or damaged barcodes, as well as electronic barcodes on dimly lit mobile device screens.
Q2: How does the DS8178-SR ensure fast, accurate scanning?
It combines an 800 MHz microprocessor, high-resolution megapixel sensor, and Zebra’s exclusive PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology to deliver unmatched performance on even the most challenging barcodes.
Q3: What is the scanning range of the DS8178-SR?
It provides an impressive scan range of up to 24 inches (61 cm) with a high-resolution sensor and bright aiming spot, speeding up checkouts by allowing cashiers to scan items in carts without leaving the register.
Q4: How long can the DS8178 cordless scanner operate on a single charge?
Equipped with Zebra’s PowerPrecision+ smart battery, the DS8178 can scan continuously for up to 24 hours, ensuring your checkout lanes stay productive without interruptions for charging.
Q5: Does the DS8178 support Digimarc barcodes?
Yes. It can decode Digimarc digital watermark technology, allowing barcodes to be repeated invisibly over product packaging for faster and easier scanning.
Q6: Can the DS8178 capture multiple barcodes at once?
Yes. With Multi-code Data Formatting (MDF), it can capture multiple barcodes with one trigger pull and transmit only the barcodes you need, in the exact sequence required.

Zebra’s Wi-Fi Friendly Mode ensures that the DS8178 Bluetooth scanner only operates on channels not shared with your wireless LAN, protecting your WLAN performance.
