Zebra Lab DS9900 Hybrid Scanner

Clinicians often encounter adversity that other industries do not. For example, Barcodes found in the lab — from tiny barcodes on microscope slides to curved barcodes on medication bottles — can be challenging for a general purpose imager. Zebra’s DS9900 Series is purpose-built for lab environments, offering unparalleled productivity and ease of use. Workers get first-time, every time capture of the many types of barcodes found in the lab including small, high density, curved and color-coded. A one-of-a-kind hybrid design offers both handheld and hands-free scanning, with seamless switching between modes. And an RFID model combines barcode scanning with RFID capabilities to read RFID tags on blood bags and other specimen samples. Improve workflow and accuracy with the hybrid imager built for the lab — the DS9900 Series.

Details

Scan it all

With a high resolution megapixel sensor and the exclusive PRZM Intelligent Imaging Technology, the DS9900 provides unparalleled scanning performance no matter the condition, size, or nature of the barcodes being scanned.

Rapid fire scanning

Improved field of view and an 800 MHz microprocessor provides near instant barcode capture every time, to keep your clinicians moving and focused on what matters.

Dynamic Switching

Your healthcare system never stops moving, which is why the DS9900 can instantly switch modes between hands-free and handheld modes, so it is always ready for wherever it is needed.
