QuickScan�
1000 Handheld Scanner
Overview
Step Up to the Performance of a Laser Scanner
The QuickScan™ 1000 scanner offers you all the benefits
of laser scanning at what used to be CCD prices. The triggerless
design, snappy scanning, and optional "hands-free" stand, give
you enhanced performance at the point-of-sale -- performance rarely
found at such an affordable price.
The QS1000 consistently delivers speed and flexibility, whether
used at the point-of-sale checkout or for office, service or medical
applications. And, it has an incredibly fast "speed-to-read" rate
compared to other scanners in its class. When you're weighing
price vs. performance, you don't need to look any further than
the QS1000 scanner. The performance to price ratio is unparalleled,
and the design is truly unique.
Innovative and Intelligent Design
The QS1000 was built to be handled... a lot. Providing user comfort
"from the hand to the stand", and back again, was the primary
consideration for the external design. The triggerless function
and ergonomic design provide a sleek, attractive scanner that
is as easy to use as it is comfortable.
The QS1000 is built smart on the inside too. A beryllium copper
scan element provides incredibly high durability. And anti-shock
mounts that can absorb up to 1,500 Gs protect the reading engine
and optics. In even the toughest environments, you can rely on
the QS1000 to keep right on performing -- even with repeated 5'
(152cm) drops to concrete.
The QuickScan 1000 Talks Your Language
With remarkable connectivity, the QS1000 supports all popular
POS interfaces and keyboard wedges. And the QS1000 autodiscriminates
all major bar code symbologies, and fully supports the UPC/EAN
family of add-ons and code extensions.
The optional high visibility (650 nm) laser diode gives the QS1000
superior reading capabilities in bright light conditions. And
advanced signal processing provides exceptional performance even
with low contrast bar codes.
