Zebra DS4678 – Wireless 2D Barcode Scanner for Cafés, Shops, and Workshops

The Zebra DS4678 is a no-nonsense Bluetooth barcode scanner built for daily heavy use. It connects wirelessly via Bluetooth BLE (class 5.2), so your staff can move freely behind the counter or through the stockroom without being tethered to a cable. The scanner communicates through its charging and transmitter cradle, which connects to your point-of-sale system — the cradle handles both charging and signal transmission in one unit.

• ·Removable 2500 mAh battery

Why a removable battery matters on a busy day

With a removable battery, you don't have to wait for the scanner to charge — swap the flat battery for a charged one and you're back scanning straight away. On a long trading day, that means the scanner stays in someone's hand, not sitting idle on the cradle.

2D imaging and OCR

The DS4678 reads all common 1D and 2D barcodes as well as OCR text. That comes in handy when you're checking age-restricted products at the till, processing supplier delivery notes that use different code formats, or reading document text such as ID information where required.

IP52 protection

The IP52 rating means the scanner handles dust and the occasional splash without complaint. In a café or food retail environment, that matters: a drink knocked onto the counter won't put the scanner out of action.
