About the Unitech MS840+ (2D)

The Unitech MS840+ is a corded 2D imager scanner that reads all common 1D and 2D barcodes, including codes as fine as 3 mil and labels that are damaged or poorly printed. It plugs into a computer over USB or RS232 and works straight away, with no software to install.

Its ergonomic grip keeps long scanning sessions comfortable, and it switches between trigger mode and hands-free presentation mode on the optional stand. The housing is IP42 rated and survives repeated 1.5 m drops to concrete.
