LS 4278 ­ The Premier Scanner for the Retail Marketplace
The LS 4278's superior ergonomic design provides the best possible user comfort, even over extended periods of use. Its unique two-finger trigger makes scanning easier and faster. The LS 4278 is also extremely light and mobile so operators can easily scan bar codes on heavy or bulky items. And there's no cord to get caught or tangled; without a cord in the way, operators won't knock over items while reaching for hard-to-get-at bar codes. Another plus that comes from not being tethered is that the LS 4278 can scan items in shopping carts, so customers don't have to lift heavy items up to the counter.

A Scanner with Advanced Features
The LS 4278 offers features that take advantage of Symbol's advanced technology and electronics:

  • An RF working range up to 50 feet/15 meters. And since it is cableless, there's never any need to worry about broken cables.
  • It uses adaptive logic to provide excellent scanning performance on all bar codes, including damaged and poor quality symbols. And its brighter laser provides improved performance in brightly lit environments.
  • The LS 4278 uses flash memory to store system and application software modules. This allows for easy field updates, plus there's no need to open the scanner and physically replace the PROM chip. In addition, its Synapse™ interface makes connectivity to virtually any host a matter of just changing the cable.
  • Advanced Data Formatting gives LS 4278 users the ability to modify scanned data before forwarding it to the host computer.
  • The LS 4278 was designed for heavy use and is very durable. It has a rubber overmold canopy and a protective battery boot cover.

The LS 4278 ­ Reliable, Flexible and Designed to Increase Productivity
The new RF LS 4278 cordless scanner is designed to increase productivity. Its award-winning, advanced ergonomic design provides greater user comfort so the job is completed more effectively and with much less fatigue. In addition, there's no more downtime due to cable problems. The LS 4278 is the ideal choice for scanning jobs in retail and light warehouse and manufacturing environments.
