Datalogic Scanning<\/a> recognizes the ongoing challenges facing our customers in today\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s financial climate. Now more than ever, throughput speed and accuracy at the point-of-sale are vital issues. The Magellan 8500Xt high performance POS bi-optic scanner<\/a> adds several new features to the well established Magellan 8500 scanner<\/a>, the worldwide leader in the bi-optic scanner\/scale marketplace. These innovative new enhancements include: a new, state-of-the-art microprocessor that enables higher POS throughput with its ability to decode hard-to read bar code labels.<\/p>\n

This new technology is brought to you by the same company (then known as Spectra-Physics) that manufactured the world\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s first supermarket scanner installed 35 years ago at a Marsh supermarket in Troy, Ohio. The Magellan 8500Xt is the first in the Magellan scanner line to incorporate the new Magellan Scale Technology which provides the fastest scale settling time in the industry. The Magellan Scale Technology is coupled with the patented All-Weighs Scale Platter to significantly reduce produce shrinkage.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Also newly offered on the Magellan 8500Xt scanner is a new dual-range scale option which enables more precise weighing of small, high value items. This new scale technology is supported by Sextante GZPS gravity zone positioning software, the world\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s first web based application to select the correct gravity zones for pre-verified scales.<\/p>\n

Finally, the Magellan 8500Xt scanner offers enhanced user label editing capabilities; and optional pre-installed integrated Sensormatic or Checkpoint EAS antenna options. Datalogic now also offers the new PreScan Queue-Busting software option and a smaller under-counter footprint that aids in the ease of installation by using existing competitive scanner checkstand cutouts.<\/p>\n
