Midnight Black · 2D Presentation Scanner · PRZM Imaging · 120 in/sec · Scanner Only
The Zebra DS9308 is a compact, high-performance on-counter presentation scanner engineered for retail, hospitality and food service environments where countertop space is at a premium. Its near-zero footprint and ratcheting base fit everywhere — from a convenience store counter to a boutique checkout desk. A combination of PRZM Intelligent Imaging, an 800 MHz processor and a 1280×800 megapixel sensor delivers swipe speeds up to 120 in/sec and reliable decode of virtually any barcode type, including DotCode through cellophane, Digimarc invisible codes and mobile wallet QR codes on screens. This listing is for the scanner unit only — an interface cable is required and sold separately.

BUYER'S GUIDE
For whom: Retail, quick-service restaurants, convenience stores, boutiques and hospitality environments that need a compact, high-performance on-counter 2D scanner — particularly those upgrading from DS9208 installations or working with very limited counter space.
Real reason to buy: The near-zero footprint and ratcheting base mean the DS9308 genuinely fits on any counter without dominating it. The 120 in/sec swipe speed and PRZM Imaging make it as fast and capable as a full-size presentation scanner in a fraction of the space.
Know before you buy: Scanner Only SKU — no interface cable is included. Confirm your required interface (USB / RS-232 / KBW) and order the appropriate Zebra cable separately. For a complete USB kit, look for the DS9308-SR7U2100AZW SKU.
Verdict: The DS9308 punches well above its footprint. If you need a compact, stylish, high-performance countertop scanner and already have a cable, this is the right unit — backed by a 3-year warranty.
