Faster performance, better durability, PDF capable and cordless freedom
The QuickScan QS6500BT, combines the latest in linear imaging technology with certified Bluetooth cordless communications. The QS6500 is designed for customers seeking better performance in a handheld scanner for retail, health care, inventory, light commercial, and office applications. Both the QuickScan QS6500 and the QS6500BT offer aggressive scanning performance and improved durability and reliability resulting from the elimination of the moving parts typical in older technology laser hand held scanners.
The QS6500BT reads almost all 1D bar code symbologies at an extremely fast 450 scans per second while also offering excellent reading performance on hard-to-read bar codes. The QS6500BT also reads most stacked 2D codes like PDF-417 and Micro PDF. The innovative charging-base station allows the product to scan bar codes while its lithium ion battery is charging.
The QuickScan QS6500BT represents a great value by combining reliability, speed, the ability to read PDF-417 codes, and certified Bluetooth RF.
