Description
The Honeywell 1470G is a next-generation handheld 2D barcode scanner designed to elevate data capture across retail, logistics, ticketing, and inventory workflows. Engineered to read both 1D and 2D symbols from paper labels and digital screens, it combines Honeywell’s advanced imaging with a durable, ergonomic form factor. The result is fast, accurate scans with minimal user effort—ideal for busy counters, stockrooms, and mobile points of service.
Key Features
- Versatile Data Capture: Reads common 1D and 2D symbologies—including QR codes—on paper and on-screen.
- USB Connectivity: Simple, plug-and-play integration with existing systems to reduce setup time.
- Ergonomic & Lightweight: Comfortable grip and balanced design minimise fatigue in long shifts.
- Fast, Accurate Scanning: Honeywell imaging delivers rapid decode performance to keep queues short.
- Rugged Daily Use: Built to withstand everyday bumps and the demands of commercial environments.
- Adaptive Operation: Intelligent settings adjust to different targets and lighting conditions.
Why the Honeywell 1470g?
The Honeywell 1470G brings dependable 2D imaging to a compact handheld scanner that’s easy to deploy and even easier to use. From printed shelf labels and shipping tags to smartphone coupons and e-tickets, the device captures data quickly and accurately—reducing re-scans and keeping transactions flowing. Its USB interface provides universal compatibility and straightforward installation at checkout lanes, receiving benches, kiosks, and service points.
Operators benefit from an ergonomic shape that fits naturally in the hand, supporting high-frequency use throughout long shifts. The lightweight build reduces strain, while the robust construction stands up to daily knocks typical of retail floors, stock areas, and warehouse stations. Honeywell’s advanced scanning technology helps the 1470G lock onto poorly printed, low-contrast, or slightly damaged barcodes—improving first-pass read rates and boosting overall throughput.
Designed to adapt, the 1470G’s automatic adjustment features optimise performance across lighting conditions and media types. Training is minimal: most users can point, aim, and scan productively within minutes, which is ideal for seasonal staffing or multi-role teams.
