What barcode types does the Datalogic QW2120-BK scanner read?
The QW2120-BK is a 1D linear imager that autodiscriminates all standard 1D codes including GS1 DataBar linear codes, postal codes (such as Australian Post, British Post, Canadian Post, and others), and stacked codes like GS1 DataBar Composites and GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked. This makes it ideal for general-purpose scanning in warehouses, manufacturing, and logistics environments where you need reliable reading of standard barcode formats.
Is the QW2120-BK corded or wireless?
The QW2120-BK is a corded scanner that connects via USB to your computer or point-of-sale system. We offer it as a scanner-only unit, so you'll need to provide your own USB cable and connection infrastructure. If you need wireless capability, contact us today to explore other Datalogic QuickScan models that may better suit your mobile scanning requirements.
What is the reading performance and scanning speed of the QW2120-BK?
The QW2120-BK delivers 400 reads per second with a wide reading angle of ±65° pitch, ±45° roll, and ±70° skew, allowing you to scan barcodes at multiple angles without repositioning. The scanner features an extended scanning line that's perfect for capturing longer and wider barcodes typically found on utility bills and electronic parts, with a thinner and brighter line that enables scanning at wide angles without increasing scanning distance.
How durable is the QW2120-BK for warehouse and industrial use?
The QW2120-BK is built for durability with IP42 particulate and water sealing, withstands repeated drops from 1.5 meters (5 feet) onto concrete surfaces, and features 16 kV ESD protection against electrostatic discharge. It operates reliably in temperatures from 0 to 50°C (32 to 122°F) and humidity levels from 5 to 95%, making it suitable for demanding warehouse and manufacturing environments.
What are the physical dimensions and weight of the QW2120-BK?
The QW2120-BK measures 17.0 x 6.5 x 7.0 cm (6.7 x 2.5 x 2.7 inches) and weighs only 119 grams (4.2 ounces), making it lightweight and ergonomic for all-day handheld use. Its compact, comfortable design is ideal for operators who need to scan continuously throughout their shift without fatigue.
What connectivity options does the QW2120-BK support?
The QW2120-BK connects via USB interface, making it compatible with standard computer systems and point-of-sale terminals that support USB connections.
